Simulate the Tabular Form Pivot Table Layout in Power Query

Sometimes our stakeholders want a table to looks like the Tabular format that comes from a Pivot Table but they don't want to see all that extra functionality from the Pivot Table. They want to see the Tabular format without repeating values in some of the columns so it looks "cleaner". We can actually simulate this using Power Query but it involves some M code (just a little bit).

Perform a Two Sample Test in Excel (t-test, unequal variances)

When you're trying to compare two population samples to see if the difference is significant or based on random chance, you're likely to perform a t-test for your hypothesis testing. Another thing to think about is to determine if it is a equal or unequal variance t-test. Excel provide an excel-lent feature in the Data Analysis Toolpak to do this easily and I'll cover it, but also show how to use the formulas to manually figure it out.

Create a List of Random Numbers with a Seed Value

Random number generation is fairly straightforward in Excel. You can use the RAND or RANDBETWEEN functions to create random numbers but if you wanted to create a pseudo random number from a seed value it would take some VBA or another add on. Not any more, because with Power Query, setting a seed value for repeatable set of random numbers is possible. See the video to learn how.
