Awesome course on operations analytics. Great learning tools in MS Excel which i did not know exist. Solver was a discovery. Decision trees are also interesting. I love the news vendor problem.

Useful skills and clear instructions on how to use Excel to solve problems!The problems are too simple for a math background student, but can still learn a lot by implementations in Excel.
