Well, damn. I only know Excel. Kind of feel like I've wasted some time now.

    Mechanical engineer here who could not live without it. And every meeting I go to, we are presented with Excel charts in one form or another. I love it tbh.

    A few main ones: either to list out current & upcoming projects wrt cost & time (the logistical/budget parts) and also columns to sort out things like a pressure, temperature, volume, voltage, current, surface area, etc, depending on what you’re working on. My degree is ME, but I also work a lot of electrical projects so the ability to sort all of these properties out in an easy to read chart is immensely helpful.

    What do you use? The POS that is Google sheets? It can't even import a CSV right.
