Buy Business Analytics by Evans, James online on desertcart.ae at best prices. ✓ Fast and free shipping ✓ free returns ✓ cash on delivery available on eligible purchase. Review: I got this book as a refresher for business analytics. Normally, I don't bother with Excel. I use Python to do data science / machine learning. But I wanted to have a quick refresher. If you work too long with a hammer .... I wish I had had this book during my MBA. The book is easy to read, interesting theory with many practical case studies. Additionally, they go deep into Excel (through an add on). They cover exciting stuff such as: - Stochastic processes - Monte Carlo Simulation - Simple Machine Learning Algoriths - Linear Programming / Optimization Every number cruncher should be excited about those topics :-) I certainly see cases where I would use Excel (with an add on), in particular for quick and dirty linear optimization. As a scientific Python user, I always envy Excel's ability to create visuals in seconds. For us, visuals are a nightmare. Would I use Excel for data science / machine learning? NEVER! Not even to learn it. In Excel, I can't "read code" ....I'd be totally lost. Great book! Review: It met my expectations, however you can tell the difference from the Global Edition as pages are in b/w. For the rest, content is the same at a fraction of the cost. Very glad with the purchase.
