(isothermtech.com)Functions (Built-In)

• Excel has many useful built-in functions under a variety of categories

• These functions can be invoked from the worksheet side by yselecting a cell and clicking the “fx” icon or “Insert-Function…” from th bthe menu bar

• Many functions also exist on the VBA side,

between the model and the user– Input & output management– Decompose subsystems and/or

components in separatecomponents in separate worksheets

– Customize for intuitiveness & performance

• Use VBA as the numerical/algorithms engine:– Calculations iteration decision

work on separate subsystem worksheets

• Have a single person do system• Have a single person do system integration of the workbook

• Implement configuration & version control techniques
