Description
Excel spreadsheets are ubiquitous and no corporate job is possible without them. Like you, I have been working with them since I started my career. However, I rarely use excel now since I have automated most of my excel based tasks using python which has done wonders to my productivity and I want to help you do the same. I have created this course to help you automate your excel spreadsheets based tasks using python and improve your productivity manifold.
