چکیده
It is widely recognized that spreadsheets are error-filled, their creators are overconfident, and the process by which they are developed is chaotic. It is less wellunderstood that spreadsheet users generally lack the skills needed to derive practical insights from their models. Modeling for insight requires skills in establishing a base case, performing sensitivity analysis, using back-solving, and (when necessary) carrying out optimization and simulation. Some of these tasks are made possible only with specialized add-ins to Excel. In this paper we present an overview of the skills and software tools needed to model for insight.

متن کاملEffective Genericity, Δ-regularity and Strong Noether Position
We show that the concept of strong Noether position for a polynomial ideal I CP is equivalent to δ-regularity and thus related to Pommaret bases. In particular, we provide explicit Pommaret bases for two of the ideal sequences used in Hashemi’s definition of strong Noether position and alternative proofs for a number of his statements. Finally, we show that one consequence of δ-regularity is th...
متن کاملFoucauldian Reading of Gholam Hossein Saedi's An Eye for an Eye
AbstractThe present paper seeks to investigate how power relations work in Saedi’s An Eye for an Eye and how discursive formation of justice brings the conflicts of the play to resolution. Foucault believes that power and knowledge create each other reciprocally. This creation happens within a domain of relationships in which discursive statements are voiced alongside and against each other. Tr...
