"Then I started looking at the scoreboard and hoping it would stay the same" I felt this to my core, glad it's the same right at the top! Thanks for sharing, great to see
Exciting, looking forward to watching it. It would have been interesting to see the live event - FMWC could, next time, have streams on all the finalist individually. Just a thought. Happy to learn from the best!
8:31 This might be why I will never beat you! (One of the reasons anyway 😂) Sometimes I’m too purist for my own good… there weren’t even that many of them, but I don’t think it would have even occurred to me to just do them by hand! 15:28 I should do that more often! I hope you can be persuaded to make more of these : )
On this point, I always go back to Andrew's approach to the Excelopolis problem in the 2021 FMWC Open, where everybody else tried to solve it using fancy formulae and even VBA, and Andrew just solved every line of each question manually... and topped the scoreboard! Sometimes the manual approach is the best 😂
@@Tim_Heng I know exactly what you mean - it was the Share the Ride case, which was theoretically doable with circular references, but very tricky to get right. I think that round might not play out the same way today though… using circular references was a very unusual idea at the time, but it’s come up a few times since. Maybe one or two people would crack the general solution in the time today??
@@DimEarly Yes you're right, it was Share the Ride. Your memory is better than mine! I think that with recursion better understood and easier to implement with lambdas now, it might be a conceptually easier task to follow as well. I'll be honest and say that I still don't think the circular general solution is terribly intuitive, but that's why I sit on the commentator side and leave the competing to you good folks! :D
What is this magical move at 19:04 ? I don't even understand how it can automaticaly go to pick the good prices at the good date knowing all the initial calculations are being done with the prices of 3 jul 23...
oh that's a data table, sorry i'm clicking the Ribbon but it's hidden behind the banner which I added to the video to keep track of the question/scores Data > What-If Analysis > Data Table, then set column input cell to the cell which you want to vary (in this case A1)
May I know your Educational background? I am thinking if After matric I wil spend my time learning Ms excel then is it important to have strong educational background for Ms excel jobs? Or only the skill is important?
Can you video with most of formulas and keyboard shortcuts you use? I would be happy if I can learn even half of your techniques 😊

Amazing, thanks for showing this and congrats on the win

Haha well you don't need to do it by hand if you have your colour macro 😂
@@andrew_ngai That was the one good investment I made in my finals prep... it didn't save me though! 😂

Excellent. I hope you continue to solve these problems and teach us how to think to reach solutions
Thank you very much
And more success
Nice one Andrew. Congrats on the win and good luck with the UA-cam career!
This video helped me realise Microsoft Excel is an insane ESport!
Really good ! Quick thinking
Love this video! Giving it a shot in October, wish me luck :)

@@andrew_ngai Thank you so much ! :)
This hurt my brain, you are insanely talented
First 🥇 of many hopefully! It will benefit us all to have a glimpse into the mind of another Excel genius!
Wonderful, thank you!
Good video thanks. Keen to see if you can make one similar about Excel Road to Vegas battle 1 (and onward). Thanks
Congratullation 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Brilliant job!❤
Great athlete
Hey Andrew, big fan. I aspire to be just as good as you one day.
How do you get the keyboard commands to show above your video cam? (like Ctrl + V) What Plugin is that?
thanks for the video!
Insane!
what sorcery is a data table @19:04 & @26:00 was trying out this excel today.
can find it in Data > What-If Analysis > Data Table, sorry i'm clicking stuff underneath the banner i placed on the video
Thanks
Can you share the link of this excel sheet you were working on?
How do you create that symbol in front of the dates at 10:04?
I didn't create that, it was a special type of data object that came with the question
May I know your Educational background? I am thinking if After matric I wil spend my time learning Ms excel then is it important to have strong educational background for Ms excel jobs? Or only the skill is important?
I'm an actuary. I suppose it depends on what job specifically but in general I'd say both are important
