A while ago I was bored and asked myself if I can actually solve leetcode problems with excel as a joke, and hence leetcode-excel was born. XLSX and everything.

I got bored after a while and didn't try to solve more problems.

Here is a fun thought: Excel has potentials in teaching non-programmers to think about algorithms. Translating a problem or a function from Excel to a programming language has the potential to break the ice for people who just "can't write a program."
