Book Description
By finelybook
Covering a variety of Excel simulations,from gambling to genetics,this introduction is for people interested in modeling future events,without the cost of an expensive textbook. The simulations covered offer a fun alternative to the usual Excel topics and include situations such as roulette,password cracking,sex determination,population growth,and traffic patterns,among many others.
