Explanation

This scenario presents a very simple use case where the business leader needs a dataset in an easy- to-access form and will not be performing any detailed analysis. A simple spreadsheet, such as Microsoft Excel, would be the best tool for this job. There is no need to use a statistical analysis package, such as SAS or Minitab, as this would likely confuse the VP without adding any value. The same is true of an integrated analytics suite, such as Power BI.
