More seasoned users could do just as well with the hundreds of online help areas centered around excel. I picked up this book to help me get over the "ribbon" hurdle with ...

The bottom line is that this is a very well written book, but more importantly the associated software is *very powerful*. The software is a *symbolic* solver for mathematical statistics, not merely a numerical solver. You will appreciate the great value of this book and software once you ...
