Pure Functional Programming in Excel • Felienne Hermans • GOTO 2016

And once again Felienne Hermans is proven right about the world running on spreadsheets and that we should take them a lot more seriously for that reason alone. [0] ▶ this video

Related to this, I recommend Felienne Hermans' talks on Excel as a functional programming language - ▶ this video .

Also see the research of Felienne Hermans and her talk “Pure Functional Programming in Excel.”[1] [1] ▶ this video

This is the talk that I first saw that builds on that: ▶ this video I found it interesting, fun and great. Still, I would stick to using Excel for the personal analysis of data and not as the language/tool on which software is developed: data & programming logic intermixed, the default way to index cells, the difference between normal cells and array cells, and tables, etc., the fact that some things are just not possible to do fully programmatically without creating your own VB functions and therefore asking recipients of what looks like data to accept running arbitrary code in their machines, etc.

OT, but Felienne has a great talk on functional programming in Excel (thanks for reminding me of her name): ▶ this video

Excel itself is functional and reactive already, wouldn't adding an FRP language on top of that be a bit superfluous? Check out Felienne Hermans' work if you haven't already: ▶ this video link
