I did pick this without thinking too much. I am pleasantly surprised by the content in here. I did think people might wonder why do you need Excel if you know Python and R, right? Well, my perspective was in 90% of jobs around the world, excel is going to be go to for majority of folks, that's how you submit reports to management or share stuff with other teams, and knowing to connect R and Python to do the analysis as a plugin to Excel can help a lot! Was surprised how much of the complex excel stuff you can automate easily with Python and R. Helped a ton with automating some of the stuff I never thought about previously. Great read!
