    Data analysis in Excel just got easier! Let me introduce you to the new Excel functions in Office 365: Excel GROUPBY and PIVOTBY functions. With these Excel functions you get to replace pivot tables with simple Excel formulas. In the video I cover the advantages of GROUPBY and PIVOTBY over pivot tables - for example the ability of GROUPBY to aggregate text values which pivot tables can't do. Also the ability to clean your data, for example remove total rows in the middle of your dataset or exclude certain rows with the Groupby and Pivotby functions. You also no longer need to refresh your data to get the latest result because formulas update automatically.
    ⬇️ Grab the workbook I use in the video here: pages.xelplus.com/groupby-piv...
    In addition you'll learn about GROUPBY's optional arguments, like displaying headers, managing totals, and sorting data. A key highlight is its ability to process text values, offering unique text aggregations which is a notable advantage over Pivot Tables.
    See GROUPBY in action as it tidies and analyzes complex data sets, easily filtering out unnecessary information for clearer reports. I also demonstrate how it efficiently groups sales data by year or month.
    Finally, get to know PIVOTBY. This function is great for reducing vertical scrolling in reports, by shifting one or more of the categories to columns for a more concise and readable format.
    Availability: GOUPBY & PIVOTY are currently available for Microsoft Insider Beta Channel only.

I used hstack to spill the results and instead of having the formula for computing the stats repeated 4 times in the hstack I created a 'r_stat' lambda and passed it the values. Assume x,y,z are the inputs. HSTACK(r_stat(x,y,z,Choosecols(myarray,1)),r_stat(x,y,z,Choosecols(myarray,2)), etc...

    Very cool functions, Leila! For most Excel users working in an office setting, though, I still think pivot tables are easier to use. Most people won't be writing lambda functions, and while I think these formulas are awesome, they could be confusing to many people versus pivot tables. Great demo of these functions, though!

    Love this! Dynamic grouping and pivoting without having to refresh is awesome. Using TEXT is a big plus that's been seriously needed for a long time! I only wish it came with formatting options. Only options to format nicely when number of rows or columns change is to either manually change formatting every time or work with conditional formatting formulas to get them just right. Either way, a little extra work to make a sheet presentable

    I've been waiting for these functions to filter down to my beta for months, so very happy to see they have now arrived. Having to remember to refresh pivot tables drives me nuts, so it looks like a lot of work coming up to (try to?) replace my many pivot tables with the new functions. Some are rather complex though.
    And quite a few need PQuery to clean the data first, and it would likely be too complex to try to eg use filter().
