I want to do some more progamming (hosed around with Smalltalk and Ruby in University) but the only thing that would actually be useful in my job would be VBA so ugh

id your job is analytical you could learn some sql and/or some matlab

fancy spreadsheets in excel are cool but fancy spreadsheets in excel calling out to matlab functions on top of reams of relational data makes for an exceptionally powerful research platform

well you use excel as the front end scratchpad, so for example you can quickly whip up a risk model in the excel UI using functions that delegate to matlab's time series and statistical functions packages which in turn can operate on tbs of quote and trade data in oracle

for actual execution a model gets turned into a C library and integrated with our trade platform but it's hard to beat excel as a front end for playing around with ideas

Dude, you don't have to explain. The correct answer is:always use excel.

the only thing i've ever done with integration of excel and some other program is excel and solidworks to check out some "generative design" bullshit

some dude was convinced creating 300 varitions with a computer would put the entire design industry out of business and he was so happy

and all it was able to do was create 300 ugly vases.

not to say GDwhatever itself is bullshit, just this one dude's idea of it

no poo poo. Without Visual Studio, some developers might complain a little about having to use a text editor instead.
Without Excel, every bank in the world would grind to a halt. If there was any chance of Excel suddenly disappearing it would definitely be a systemic risk.

incorporating any kind of object-oriented behaviour in MATLAB is nigh-impossible. maybe one day SciPy will be good or something (and capable of handling x000*x000 LTI systems)??

in the meanwhile, it's back to manually scripted system builds for me :/

you should read the camel book at some point, and then "Higher Order Perl".


but the camel book is awesome.
