Hermit's Free Library Brain Teasers
One in a series of exercises that demonstrate how to accomplish real-world computing tasks using time- and work-saving techniques. This exercise shows how an MS-Word table or an MS-Excel formula can be used to manipulate a list of names.
You are given a list of names. Some of the names include middle initials while others do not.
Remove all middle initials so that only first names remain and generate a tally of all the names as well as how many times the names "Barbara" and "Wanda" appear in the list.
