So, what're the best /biz/ related computer skills to learn that are useful for anything /biz/ related?:
1. Python
2. Excel
3. ???
FASM, C++, Python and Go

Kind of redundant to learn that many. Python is more than enough.
Python, Visual Basic, SQL
Most useful for /biz/ jobs

A lot of people skip over html/css/SEO but there's a lot of money to be had just in basic web design and maintenance.
SQL is probably the top technical skill that a business analyst needs to know

the majority of business applications are web applications. if you're learning python it will usually be things that interact with web pages. you pretty much need html and css no matter what you're doing, they're very simple anyway
>>1154207
What concrete job titles can you obtain by learning html/css/SEO?
E.g.: Junior Analayst
Senior Analyst
Thanks!
>>1154226
Yeah I forgot SEO/html/CSS
But if you really want to be /biz/ techsavy then learn basic web development, python and SQL. You'll be set for just about anything.
How do you learn Excel? I know all the basics, but I want to become an advanced user. What are some good resources?

It's only good as a scripting language

ITT: People who read some shit a neckbeard said and saw a chart, not knowing its pretty speedy in a practical sense.

BENCHMARKS YOU FUCKING RETARD

>I'm going to say something false then call you a neckbeard for correcting it
Ok
>>1154159
Python, Excel, R, SQL
>>1154958
Out of interest, what sort of code are you writing where the execution speed gained by using a compiled language like C/C++ outweighs the development speed gained by using an interpreted language like Python/Ruby?
>>1154159
>Shell scripting for whatever system you're on
>Python
>Excel
That's basically it unless you're making software.

Excel is extremely useful -- universally prevalent in the finance and management organizations of all companies.
To get good at Excel, try and use it to do difficult things.
Learn how functions like vlookup, index-match, sumifs, and array formulas all work.
Learn how to parse strings of text using left, right, len, search-- try and take the middle 3 digits of a phone number, for example.
