I need a formula that uses a series of numbers in one column (numbers 1-21) and returns just a number for every 21 cells.
Example: for every 21 cells return a 1 for every 21 cells return a 2 for every 21 cells return a 3. This should happen up to 650 cells
My formulas do not do this properly, I have to keep changing the # for the formula to work the way I want just looking for a faster solution. This is the formula I am using (=$B$42+2)
Put this in the first column first cell:
=MOD(ROW(A1)-1,21)+1
and this in the second column first cell:
=INT((ROW(A1)-1)/21)+1
And copy both formula down the desired number of rows
If one has the Dynamic array formula SEQUENCE() replace the ROW(A1)-1 with SEQUENCE(650,,0) and Excel will spill the values down automatically 650 rows.
I think is easier you put a filter above the column and filter, for example, the number 1, and put SUM() in the ones, that way you will know how many times go 21 times.
My question is, the column always goes 1-21 or have other numbers if you have other numbers you can put one column that repeats 1-21 in till the end and filter the same way I said before and later you can hide the column.
Hope this helps.🤞

I need a count if function that counts me the cells that meet a certain criteria. This should be done with countifs. The formula is the following:
=COUNTIFS(Orders!D:D;"*Ecolab*";Orders!B:B;">=01/01/2019";Orders!U:U;">=36";Orders!K:Q;">=1")This formula returns me an value type error.
This formula works well until I introduce the last condition orders!K:Q;">=1"
I would like a formula that counts if the word Ecolab is present in the cell; if the date is after or equal 01/01/2019; if the column U has more or equal than the number 36 and if there is at least a "1" in the cells in the row from column K to column Q. I could do this by easily replicating the countifs several times, (i.e =COUNTIFS(Orders!D:D;"*Ecolab*";Orders!B:B;">=01/01/2019";Orders!U:U;">=36";Orders!K:K;">=1")+COUNTIFS(Orders!D:D;"*Ecolab*";Orders!B:B;">=01/01/2019";Orders!U:U;">=36";Orders!L:L;">=1")+...........+COUNTIFS(Orders!D:D;"*Ecolab*";Orders!B:B;">=01/01/2019";Orders!U:U;">=36";Orders!Q:Q;">=1")
But I would rather not include such a long formula as it would create confusion for the ultimate user of the excel sheet
Per my comment above, you could use SUMPRODUCT (avoid using whole columns for that) or an array with OFFSET like this:
=SUM(COUNTIFS(Orders!D:D;"*Ecolab*";Orders!B:B;">=01/01/2019";Orders!U:U;">=36";OFFSET(Orders!J:J;0;{1;2;3;4;5;6;7});">=1"))
If the count for K:Q should be 1 when there may be more than one cell greater or equal to 1 in a single row then you need to apply OR criteria in a SUMPRODUCT.
SUMPRODUCT formulas should not use full column references; there is too much wasted calculation. The following is for rows 2:99; adjust for your own use.
=SUMPRODUCT(--ISNUMBER(SEARCH("ecolab", Orders!D2:D99)),
--(Orders!B2:B99>=DATE(2019, 1, 1)),
--(Orders!U2:U99>=36),
SIGN((Orders!K2:K99>=1)+(Orders!L2:L99>=1)+(Orders!M2:M99>=1)+(Orders!N2:N99>=1)+(Orders!O2:O99>=1)+(Orders!P2:P99>=1)+(Orders!Q2:Q99>=1)))
Having A1+C1 and B1+D1 in two cells how can I dynamically set up a formula to catch if some column is added.
Let's say the user adds two columns in the middle. I should have A1+C1+E1 and B1+D1+F1.
I thought it would have been automatic but it is not.
Replace:
=A1+C1
By:
=SUM(A1:C1) - B1
In case you want to check if the column number is divisble by three, you can use following formula:
=IF(MOD(COLUMN(A1);3)=0;A1;0) // I've put the values from 1 to 10 in A1-J1
// and I've dragged this formula from A2 to J2,
// the values were 0,0,3,0,0,6,0,0,9,0.
Unfortunately I don't have a simple way to sum those values in one easy formula.
If you always add two columns then A1+C1 will always be looking at odd number columns and B1+D1 will always be looking at even numbered columns.
{=SUM(IF(ISODD(COLUMN($A$1:$D$1)),$A$1:$D$1))}
and
{=SUM(IF(ISEVEN(COLUMN($A$1:$D$1)),$A$1:$D$1))}
As long as you insert columns between A:D the ranges will extend to accommodate.
Edit:
Based on the comment that row 2 contains codes and row 3 contains the figures to add up for each code then this array formula will work:
{=SUM(IF($A$2:$J$2="H1",$A$3:$J$3))}
Edit2: and if I wake up you can even use the non-array and built in formula:
=SUMIF($A$2:$J$2,"H1",$A$3:$J$3)
The H1 text can be changed to another code or to a cell reference containing the code to get the sum of values in row 3 for the specified code.
As an array formula it must be entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter.
thank you for taking the time to look at this question.
I'm looking for an equation that can easily take the numerical values from Sheet 1 (the first picture) which has 2 blank cells in between values for four values and then has 4 blank cells and then the other four values. I'm not sure if I am making sense but hopefully the picture I have attached helps.
Notice 2 blank rows between first 4 rows with values (Rows 2-11) and same between rows 16 and 25.
Also notice the 4 blank rows between the two sets of values.
For me, this is repeated for 700 values, same set up of 2 blank rows for 4 sets of values and then 4 blank rows and then four sets of values with 2 blank rows. I'm sure there is an easier way to do this.
I'm trying to recreate Sheet 2 from Sheet 1 using an equation. Is this possible?
Apologies in advance, English isn't my first language.
If the numbers are going to start in B2 and the intervals and offset staggers are static then,
=INDEX(B:B, 2+(ROW(1:1)-1)*3+INT((ROW(1:1)-1)/4)*2)
If the first number is in S6 then,
=INDEX(S:S, 6+(ROW(1:1)-1)*3+INT((ROW(1:1)-1)/4)*2)
Put this in D2:
=IFERROR(INDEX(Sheet1!B:B,AGGREGATE(15,6,ROW(Sheet1!$B$2:INDEX(Sheet1!B:B,MATCH("ZZZ",Sheet1!A:A)))/(Sheet1!$B$2:INDEX(Sheet1!B:B,MATCH("ZZZ",Sheet1!A:A))<>""),ROW(1:1))),"")
And copy down till you get blanks.
This will return the numbers in order that they appear on sheet 1.
The Sheet1!$B$2:INDEX(Sheet1!B:B,MATCH("ZZZ",Sheet1!A:A)) set the data set bounds. This being an array type formula it needs to reference the smallest possible data set. This part finds the last cell in Column A and sets that as the extent of the data set so we do not do unnecessary iterations.
The MATCH part will return the last row that has text in it, if Column A has numbers then we need to change the "ZZZ" to 1E+99 to get the last row in column A with a number.
The AGGREGATE is working like a small in that it will create an array of row numbers and Errors. It will return ROW Numbers where (Sheet1!$B$2:INDEX(Sheet1!B:B,MATCH("ZZZ",Sheet1!A:A))<>"") return true. And an Error where it returns FALSE.
The second criterion 6 in Aggregate tells it to ignore the errors, so it is only looking at the returned row numbers.
The ROW(1:1) is a counter. As the formula is dragged down it will iterate to 2 then 3 and so on. This tells the Aggregate that you want the 1st then the 2nd then the 3rd and so on.
The chosen row number is then passed to the INDEX and the correct value is returned.
If your numbers are in order (smallest to largest like your example) or you want the output in order(smallest to largest) then you can use this simple equation in D2:
=IFERROR(SMALL(Sheet1!B:B,ROW(1:1)),"")
Then copy down till you get blanks.
Here is another formula you might use.
=INDIRECT(ADDRESS((INT((ROW()-ROW($A$2))/4)*14+ROW(A$2))+(MOD(ROW()-ROW($A$2),4)*3),COLUMN($A$2),1,1,"Sheet1"))
You can paste it to the first cell where you want the result and copy down.
Note that $A$2 is the cell from where all the counting starts. If your data start from A3 you can change the references accordingly. Note further that ROW($A$2) is long for 2. I chose this syntax to enable you to identify the meaning.
COLUMN($A$2), on the other hand, just identifies Column A as the source of the data to be lifted. Row 2 in this formula is insignificant. It's the A that counts. However, COLUMN($A$2) is long for just 1, meaning column No. 1, meaning A. Once you get your bearing in the formula you can replace COLUMN($A$2) with 1.
I am trying to figure out how to count the last 10 cell values that are bigger than 1, in a given range, and to exclude blank cells. The formula should handle last 10 non-blank entries dynamically in a column.
I have this array formula from another forum:
=IFERROR(AVERAGE(IF(ROW(A2:A20)>=LARGE(IF(A2:A20<>"",ROW(A2:A20)),MIN(COUNT(A2:A20),10)),IF(A2:A20<>"",A2:A20))),"")
It averages the last 10 cell values, excluding blanks.
I have tried to replace the "average" function with "countif", and I added ">1", but without success,it returned zero.
The problem with your question is that you only need last 10 cells of your range. Assuming your range is A2:A20, you count the last 10 values greater than 1 as follows:
=COUNTIF(OFFSET(A2,ROWS(A2:A20)-10,0,10,1),">1")
Note that you have to type in the first cell of the range (A2) as well as the whole range (A2:A2O) and you have to type number 10 twice, but that's how Excel programming is...
Made some changes in your formula:
=IFERROR(SUM(IF(INT(IF(ROW(A2:A20)>=LARGE(IF(A2:A20<>"",ROW(A2:A20)),MIN(COUNT(A2:A20),10)),IF(A2:A20<>"",A2:A20)))>1,1,0)),"")
This is an array formula so commit it by pressing Ctrl+Shift+Enter.
Instead of COUNTIF function, I am using SUM(IF()). For deatils see this.
Here, INT function converts False to 0 and TRUEto 1.
I am trying to display the total sum of all the numbers for a particular column. I want the sum to be displayed above the column as follows:
21 30
A B
6 5
6 10
6 10
3 5
I know I can sum the values and display it at the bottom of the column using =SUM(A3:INDIRECT("D"&ROW()-2)), however I am not getting a way to display it at the top of the column.
Please guide.
Based on the comments and the previous answers I suggest following formula, entered in cell A1:
=SUM(OFFSET(A$2,0,0,ROWS(b:b)-1))
You can then copy/paste to the right till second last column.
You could also modify your formula in A1 like this to achieve the same:
=SUM(INDIRECT("A2:A"&ROWS(A:A)-2))
But then you cannot copy/paste to the right...
A more general approach with your idea would be:
=SUM(INDIRECT(ADDRESS(ROW()+1,COLUMN())&":"&ADDRESS(ROWS(A:A),COLUMN())))
You can then copy/paste to the right till last column.
Some explanations:
Both formula sums up every value in the range from A2 till the bottom of column A (i.e. for Excel 2010 this would be A2:A1048576)
It doesn't matter if there are blanks or cells without value; the formula sums up only the numbers
I put A$2 and B:B in the OFFSET formula to avoid circular references, since I'm writing in cell A1 and I cannot write A$1 nor A:A
With the INDIRECT formula you don't have to worry about circular references
Further commenting (sorry, I don't have the credits to comment at the right place under the question):
Phylogenesis formula =SUM(A3:A65535) could also do the work, isn't it?
Didn't understand your question at first, because you talk of "sum of all the numbers for a particular row" but then you sum columns, isn't it?
When I'm doing something like this, I prefer to not include any empty cells beneath the range I'm summing, because I've had errors in the past as the result of including them (usually because there's a cell way down in the column somewhere that I'm not expecting to have a value). I'm assuming that A & B are your column headers. Assuming that, here is how I would do it. This is your formula for cell A1:
=SUM(OFFSET(A$1,2,0,COUNTA(A$3:A$65535)))
Explanation
I'm updating this with a brief explanation, per the OP's request.
According to ExcelFunctions.net:
The Excel Offset function returns range of cells that is a specified number of rows and columns from an initial supplied range.
The function reference for OFFSET is:
=OFFSET(reference, rows, cols, [height], [width])
What this formula does is create a dynamic range based on the number of cells in the selection, relative to cell A$1. This is an offset of two rows and no columns, which starts the range at A$3. The height of the range is the total number of filled cells in the range A$3:A$65535. The assumption here is that there are no blank cells in the range, which there were not in the sample data.
