🗂The order of operations used in MS Excel while evaluating formulas
MS Excel follows a standard math protocol to evaluate a formula.
This protocol is called “order of operations” – PEMDAS –
~Parentheses
~Exponents
~Multiplication
~Division
~Addition
~Subtraction
MS Excel also applies some customization to handle the formula syntax.
The order in which MS Excel performs calculations can affect the return value of the formula.
First of all, Excel evaluates any expressions in parentheses.
As we have seen in mathematical formulae too, parentheses essentially override the normal order of operations. It prioritizes certain operations.
Next, Excel resolves cell references like A1 (cell address). It evaluates range references like A1:A10, making them arrays of values.
It also performs range operations like a union (comma) and an intersection (space).
Next, Excel performs –
-Exponentiation
-Negation
-% conversions
-Multiplication and division
-Addition and subtraction
-Concatenation
-Logical operators
The key to mastering Excel for career growth:
❌It's not your degree
❌It's not your job title
It's how you apply these principles:
1. Learn by solving real problems
2. Build your own Excel toolkit
3. Share your skills with others
No one starts a spreadsheet wizard, but everyone can become one.
If you're looking to level up with Excel, start by:
⟶ Watching tutorials
⟶ Practicing with real datasets
⟶ Rebuilding dashboards you admire
⟶ Automating tasks with formulas & macros
⟶ Asking questions and learning from pros
You'll be amazed how quickly Excel becomes your superpower.
So, start today and let your Excel journey begin!

Sometimes reality outpaces expectations in the most unexpected ways.
While global AI development seems increasingly fragmented, Sber just released Europe's largest open-source AI collection—full weights, code, and commercial rights included.
✅ No API paywalls.
✅ No usage restrictions.
✅ Just four complete model families ready to run in your private infrastructure, fine-tuned on your data, serving your specific needs.
What makes this release remarkable isn't merely the technical prowess, but the quiet confidence behind sharing it openly when others are building walls. Find out more in the article from the developers.
GigaChat Ultra Preview: 702B-parameter MoE model (36B active per token) with 128K context window. Trained from scratch, it outperforms DeepSeek V3.1 on specialized benchmarks while maintaining faster inference than previous flagships. Enterprise-ready with offline fine-tuning for secure environments.

GigaChat Lightning offers the opposite balance: compact yet powerful MoE architecture running on your laptop. It competes with Qwen3-4B in quality, matches the speed of Qwen3-1.7B, yet is significantly smarter and larger in parameter count.
Lightning holds its own against the best open-source models in its class, outperforms comparable models on different tasks, and delivers ultra-fast inference—making it ideal for scenarios where Ultra would be overkill and speed is critical. Plus, it features stable expert routing and a welcome bonus: 256K context support.

Kandinsky 5.0 brings a significant step forward in open generative models. The flagship Video Pro matches Veo 3 in visual quality and outperforms Wan 2.2-A14B, while Video Lite and Image Lite offer fast, lightweight alternatives for real-time use cases. The suite is powered by K-VAE 1.0, a high-efficiency open-source visual encoder that enables strong compression and serves as a solid base for training generative models. This stack balances performance, scalability, and practicality—whether you're building video pipelines or experimenting with multimodal generation.

Audio gets its upgrade too: GigaAM-v3 delivers speech recognition model with 50% lower WER than Whisper-large-v3, trained on 700k hours of audio with punctuation/normalization for spontaneous speech.
GitHub | HuggingFace
Every model can be deployed on-premises, fine-tuned on your data, and used commercially. It's not just about catching up – it's about building sovereign AI infrastructure that belongs to everyone who needs it.
