===============
1) Introduction
===============
The DecisionTools Suite is an integrated set of programs for risk analysis and decision making
under uncertainty that runs in Microsoft Excel. The DecisionTools Suite includes @RISK for
Monte Carlo simulation, PrecisionTree for decision trees, and TopRank for “what if” sensitivity analysis.
In addition, the DecisionTools Suite comes with StatTools for statistical analysis and forecasting,
NeuralTools for predictive neural networks, and Evolver and RISKOptimizer for optimization.
All programs work together better than ever before, and all integrate completely with
Microsoft Excel for ease of use and maximum flexibility.
