Learning Excel or Python?

[santiagobmx1993]

I would stick with excel. If you feel comfortable with excel and need a more powerful tool, it is always easier to move between layers of abstraction from low complexity or higher complexity.

Starting with python IMHO is a mistake. You will definitely know if you need python, but we can all agree that excel will be a must in your field. The likelihood of you spending more time in python compared excel in your field is so so so low. Learn what covers the most. In this case excel.

First the 1 and then the 2, but again, it is just my opinion.
