In Cell B1 I want to display the first value that is <> 0 in the Column A.
(in this example it would be 500)
I tried to go with something like this but could not make it work:
B1 =LOOKUP(2,1/(A1:A8<>0),A1:A8)
How do I need to modify the formula to get the needed result?
Can try FILTER().
=#FILTER(A:A,A:A>0)
Index and Match will find the next non 0 in a column
=INDEX(A:A,MATCH(TRUE,INDEX(A:A<>0,),0))

I have an Excel/Google Sheets table in which some rows contain blank cells in between non-blank cells. I would like to count from left to right. I have used the formula COUNTA(A2:F2) but it cannot achieve what I want. This is a sample of the outcome I would like to get, with the Personalized count that I am seeking to achieve and the classic COUNTA:
I think that the task is slightly different from what you describe in the question, you want to count until blank and not between not blank cells.
So I made this working example
+---+------+------+------+------+------+------+-------+
| | A | B | C | D | E | F | G |
+---+------+------+------+------+------+------+-------+
| 1 | 2021 | 2020 | 2019 | 2018 | 2017 | 2016 | Count |
| 2 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 6 |
| 3 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | | | 4 |
| 4 | 1 | | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 5 | 1 | 1 | 1 | | | 1 | 3 |
+---+------+------+------+------+------+------+-------+
where cell G2 contains the following:
=IFERROR(MATCH(1;--(A2:F2="");0)-1;COUNTA(A2:F2))
is it right for you?
I am trying to lookup data that is the first occurrence of an ID looking upwards in excel. I would like to stop looking upwards when the cell value is ID is 0.
I have used the following to find the first occurrence when looking upwards:
In Cell D8:
=LOOKUP(2,1/($A$2:A8=C8),$B$2:B8)
In Cell D9:
=LOOKUP(2,1/($A$2:A9=C9),$B$2:B9)
For the case of desired outcome = 13 this works, however when there are consecutive IDs I would like to return the top most non-zero data field. Example desired outcome = 15 with the current formula returns 0.
How can I continue looking upwards until the top most ID = 2 before ID =0?
+----+------+--------------+-----------------+
| ID | Data | Lookup Value | Desired Outcome |
+----+------+--------------+-----------------+
| 2 | 18 | 1 | No Formula |
+----+------+--------------+-----------------+
| 1 | 25 | 2 | No Formula |
+----+------+--------------+-----------------+
| 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
+----+------+--------------+-----------------+
| 1 | 13 | 0 | 0 |
+----+------+--------------+-----------------+
| 2 | 15 | 0 | 0 |
+----+------+--------------+-----------------+
| 2 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
+----+------+--------------+-----------------+
| 2 | 0 | 1 | 13 |
+----+------+--------------+-----------------+
| 1 | 0 | 2 | 15 |
+----+------+--------------+-----------------+
| 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
+----+------+--------------+-----------------+
| 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
+----+------+--------------+-----------------+
Put this in D4 and copy down:
=IFERROR(LOOKUP(2,1/(($A$2:A4=C4)*($B$2:B4<>0)),$B$2:B4),0)
Put this in D4 and copy down:
=IFNA(LOOKUP(9^9,1/B$2:B4^-1/($A$2:A4=C4)),)
This must be a simple thing to do but somehow I am unable to find answer to this question. In google sheets, if you want to reference an entire column (e.g Column A) you will put ={A:A} and the entire column will be referenced. How do you achieve similar thing in MS excel?
EDIT: (Asked in comments to post specific example)
Lets assume google sheets contain the following data:
| A | B | C |
| 1 | 5 | 9 |
| 2 | 6 | 0 |
| 3 | 7 | 9 |
| 4 | 8 | 0 |
Now if in cell D1 I type ={A:A}, the entire column A will be shown in column D.
| A | B | C | D |
| 1 | 5 | 9 |={A:A}
| 2 | 6 | 0 |
| 3 | 7 | 9 |
| 4 | 8 | 0 |
becomes
| A | B | C | D |
| 1 | 5 | 9 | 1 |
| 2 | 6 | 0 | 2 |
| 3 | 7 | 9 | 3 |
| 4 | 8 | 0 | 4 |
I dont have to drag the formula to the bottom or anything. It just shows the entire column
How do I do the exact same thing in excel?
It depends. For example:
=COUNTIF(A:A,"gold")
Excel does not support stuff like:
=COUNTIF(A12:A,"gold")
I have following problem:
I want to give scores to a range of numbers from 1-10 for example:
| | A | B |
|---|------|----|
| 1 | 1209 | 1 |
| 2 | 401 | 7 |
| 3 | 123 | 9 |
| 4 | 49 | 10 |
| 5 | 30 | 10 |
(Not sure if B is 100% correct but roughly)
I got the B values with
=ABS(CEILING(A1;MAX($A$1:$A$32)/10)*10/MAX($A$1:$A$32)-11)
It seems to work but if I for example take numbers like
| | A | B |
|---|------|----|
| 1 | 100 | 1 |
| 2 | 90 | 2 |
| 3 | 80 | 3 |
| 4 | 70 | 4 |
| 5 | 50 | 6 |
But I want 50 to be 10.
I would like to have it scalable so I can do it with a 1-10 or 1-100 or 5-27 or whatever scale and with however many numbers in the list and whatever numbers to score from.
Thanks!
Use this formula:
=$E$1 + ROUND((MIN($A:$A)-A1)/((MAX($A:$A)-MIN($A:$A))/($E$1-$E$2)),0)
It is scalable. You put the max and min in E1 and E2.
I'm trying to find a solution without macros in excel for following problem:
There is a table containing ratings of a student for different time periods.
So the rating of the student with ID=1 was 1 from January to April and 3 from Mai to June.
Two other students had a constant ranking (6 and 9) from January to June
| A | B | C |D |
---| ----|------------|------------|-------|
1 | ID | START | END |RANKING|
2 | 1 | 01.01.2014 | 30.04.2014 | 1 |
3 | 1 | 01.05.2014 | 30.06.2014 | 3 |
4 | 2 | 01.01.2014 | 30.06.2014 | 6 |
5 | 3 | 01.01.2014 | 30.06.2014 | 9 |
Next table contains IDs (y axis) and Months (x axis)
| F | G | H | I | J | K | L |
---| ----|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|
1 | ID | 201401 | 201402 | 201403 | 201404 | 201405 | 201406 |
2 | 1 | | | | | | |
3 | 2 | | | | | | |
4 | 3 | | | | | | |
And I wish to feel this second table like this:
| ID | 201401 | 201402 | 201403 | 201404 | 201405 | 201406 |
| ----|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|
| 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 3 | 3 |
| 2 | 6 | 6 | 6 | 6 | 6 | 6 |
| 3 | 9 | 9 | 9 | 9 | 9 | 9 |
I tried to use Index and Match, but without any good results because I haven't found a posibility to use IF (if (
Could anybody help?
You can get what you're looking for with SUMPRODUCT
Given the layout you provided, this formula should work when put in G2 and filled down and over
=SUMPRODUCT(--($A:$A=$F2),--($B:$B<=G$1),--($C:$C>G$1),$D:$D)
That looks in column A for an ID matching F2, then for every one it finds of those:
It checks the date in column B against the date in G1
It checks the date in column C against the date in G1
If all criteria match, it returns the value in Column D
This assumes you only have one entry for each period, otherwise it will sum them.
Also, you can use SUMIFS, it's a little less easy to read but I think it's slightly more efficient than SUMPRODUCT (I'm not positive, just anecdotal evidence from usage)
=SUMIFS($D:$D,$A:$A,"="&$F3,$B:$B,"<="&G$1,$C:$C,">"&G$1)
It does the exact same thing, just with different syntax.
