These are some really nifty tools!
You're telling me that with a couple of clicks, I can get this much information about my data!?
I'm seeing how "applied steps" rather than a static report could be SO useful for data that is routinely updated/uploaded.
Can I just say I LOVE the TEXT tools. So much easier than the Excel formulas (although it is really important to know them too, and how can you appreciate the shortcut without having gone the long way first?).
And the STATS tools!? Again, I don't think I could appreciate them without having learned the long form first.
In the Text- and Numerical-specific tool assignments, I think the most difficult part was just locating the buttons I needed to press. In the Numerical assignment, I wasn't sure whether "NA" counted as a product color or not, but in the solution it counted it.
Up next it looks like I'll be tackling dates, times, and locales.
