๐Today we rolled out lambda function support to Excel users on the current channel. If you use dynamic arrays, I'd recommend starting with BYROW and BYCOL which can be used to aggregate rows/columns and spill the results. https://t.co/wBrQjl4VsH

Desmond Tutu passed away today. ๐He fought for an apartheid free South Africa and was central to the reconciliation effort. An inspirational human being, with a great sense of humor and an infectious laugh. He will be missed. #DesmondTutu

From the interview with Joe McDaid around 1:46:10: "Excel is a programming language. It's a functional programming language, if you want to get technical, but it's the world's largest programming language by user base." ๐๐๐

This is awesome. I'll be lining up to buy a copy of Tommy's next album "Music for fellow nerds" as soon as it drops.
Today @msexcel fans, Tommy Tutone sings about a formula to search in reverse in #Excel ! This could be his biggest hit since 867-5309 #Jenny

โฆ@Patrick_Spenceโฉ This 3rd party app is masquerading as the Sonos app in the App Store by paying for an ad and appearing 1st. All written reviews are from confused Sonos users disappointed at Sonos for needing to pay. Sad to see the App Store profit from this poor behavior.

We just announced a new wave of lambda functions. If you like dynamic arrays, you are going to love BYROW and BYCOL -- they allow you to aggregate rows/columns and have them spill. ๐ฏ https://t.co/BtckTipH70

So excited about the possibilities of the new LAMBDA function. This opens up a new realm for Excel calc and is a huge first for spreadsheeting. Special thanks to all the folks at MSR Cambridge Calc Intel ( https://t.co/apDv8fubay) for working with us on this.
