Given the improved analytical capabilities of Excel,
scientists and engineers everywhere are using it--instead of
FORTRAN--to solve problems. And why not? Excel is installed on
millions of computers, features a rich set of built-in
analyses tools, and includes an integrated Visual Basic for
Applications (VBA) programming language. No wonder it's
Chances are you already use Excel to perform some fairly
routine calculations. Now the Excel Scientific and Engineering
Cookbook shows you how to leverage Excel to perform more
complex calculations, too, calculations that once fell in the
domain of specialized tools. It does so by putting a
smorgasbord of data analysis techniques right at your
fingertips. The book shows how to perform these useful tasks
- Use Excel and VBA in general
- Import data from a variety of sources
- Analyze data
- Perform calculations
- Use Excel to solve specific science and engineering problems
Wherever possible, the Excel Scientific and Engineering
Cookbook draws on real-world examples from a range of
scientific disciplines such as biology, chemistry, and
physics. This way, you'll be better prepared to solve the
problems you face in your everyday scientific or engineering
High on practicality and low on theory, this quick, look-up
reference provides instant solutions, or "recipes," to
problems both basic and advanced. And like other books in
O'Reilly's popular Cookbook format, each recipe also includes
a discussion on how and why it works. As a result, you can
take comfort in knowing that complete, practical answers are a
mere page-flip away.
