Custom GPTs exist on almost any subject: from looking up whether something is a priority in your organisation's business plan all the way through to subtly skewing any answers to include the benefits of getting a second cat.

Have you ever yearned for a better formula editor in Excel? Or wanted to write calls to ChatGPT from an Excel formula?

For this month's competition you've invited to do our 20-question Super Autumnal Quiz. Loyal readers will know that you probably won't get all of the answers right, but you'll have fun and learn some interesting facts along the way. After finishing the quiz you'll be able to submit your answer, giving you a chance of winning this month's £50 voucher (and a modicum of fame). Your chance of winning will be greater the better you do in the quiz.
Congratulations to Rory O'Connor for winning last month's logic puzzle - a £50 voucher is on its way to him. You can see the answer to last month's puzzle here.
