Distribution Random draw #29

Closed japsa1974 closed 4 years ago

japsa1974 commented 5 years ago

Hi,

Office 365 Excel Version 1902 Build 11328.20438 Click to Run Windows 10

I can't seem to draw a fresh random sample from any distribution by pushing F9 to recalculate.

Argo Setting Options>Cell Preferences>:Distribution Random Values>Random Draw

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated

Cheers Jason

Hey Jason,

We disabled this feature. Updating the value of distribution cells on every workbook change was leading to long and unnecessary calculation cycles for large models.

It's key to note that the Cell Preferences setting only impacts what is shown in the workbook. The simulation is the same regardless of what is shown in the distribution cells.

We should remove the option from the interface.

Thanks,

Blake
