Manipulating a cell in excel to count columns in Excel - excel

Here is my data in Excel, starting from column A to D:
Group Class Time Condition
M Q20 1 Good
M P30 2 Poor
N Q20 1 Poor
M Q20 2 Good
M P30 3 Good
N P30 2 Good
I want to count Group and class by two columns Condition and Time to get different values in the following table
Q20M Q20N P30M P30N
2 0 1 1
I have used the following codes to get the above counts
COUNTIFS(A2:A7,"=M",D2:D7, "=Good",C2:C7, ">=1",B2:B7,"=Q20")
COUNTIFS(A2:A7,"=N",D2:D7, "=Good",C2:C7, ">=1",B2:B7,"=Q20")
COUNTIFS(A2:A7,"=M",D2:D7, "=Good",C2:C7, ">=1",B2:B7,"=P30")
COUNTIFS(A2:A7,"=N",D2:D7, "=Good",C2:C7, ">=1",B2:B7,"=P30")
I want to select a single cell, say under this table, to manipulate the Time and to see the counts for each cell. For example, I want to enter a different number of the Times to see how the numbers are changed. The time is now set at>=1.
Any help would be very much appreciated.

If I understand your question, don't hard-code the 1, but use a reference to the cell, e.g. something like this, if your number is in A10.
COUNTIFS(A2:A7,"=M",D2:D7, "=Good",C2:C7, ">="&A10,B2:B7,"=Q20")
Note that you can just use "Q20" and "P30" and drop the =; same for "M" and "Good".

Change this:
COUNTIFS(A2:A7,"=M",D2:D7, "=Good",C2:C7, ">=1",B2:B7,"=Q20")
To this:
COUNTIFS(A2:A7,"=M",D2:D7, "=Good",C2:C7, ">=" & C8 ,B2:B7,"=Q20")
And enter your number in cell C8

How to count unique value from the column

How many times it has been repeated - A column
Value to count repetition - B column
x
ac9987677768776
As on the example above, I want to display how many times the "Value to count repetition", counted with entire B column in mind, occurred. The number should appear instead of the "x" in the "How many times it has been repeated - A column".
Would you be kind enough to help me out?
Cheers!
try:
=INDEX(COUNTIF(B2:B; B2:B))
Try QUERY() function like-
=QUERY(B2:B,"select B, count(B) where B is not null group by B label count(B) ''")

Count Values for Each Number in a cell in a Column

I have an excel sheet like the following, and would like to go down each row and add 1 to each of the numbers listed under the L3 column. Eventually, I would like to output something like this:
L3s Count Attr Ids
4770 10 [370, 380, ...]
6420 8 [481, 490...]
21253 20 [580....290]
... ... ...
The count is derived by going through all of the rows, and adding 1 to each L3 number whenever it is encountered. Attr IDs are the ids that contributed to the count. Is there any simple way to accomplish this in excel without having to vba/python?
Thanks in advance!
If you have windows Excel O365, you can use the following formulas:
(Note that I made the original data into a Table)
Sorted Unique list of the L3s:
=SORT(UNIQUE(FILTERXML("<t><s>" &SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(TEXTJOIN("</s><s>",TRUE,Table1[L3s])," ",""),",","</s><s>")&"</s></t>","//s")))
Count of the L3s
=COUNT(FILTERXML("<t><s>" &SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(TEXTJOIN("</s><s>",TRUE,Table1[L3s])," ",""),",","</s><s>")&"</s></t>","//s[.=" & F8 &"]"))
Associate Attr IDs
="[" &TEXTJOIN(",",TRUE,FILTER(Table1[attr],ISNUMBER(FIND(","&F8&",",SUBSTITUTE(","&Table1[L3s]& ","," ","")))))&"]"

EXCEL Look up max number (possible multiple results) and return another column same row

A B
1 Pilot1
3 Pilot2
4 Pilot3
6 Pilot4
15 Pilot5
10 Pilot6
3 Pilot7
8 Pilot8
15 Pilot9
What is the excel formula for looking up the highest value(s) in column A and returning the Pilot(s) name(s).
I am using right now:
=MAX(A1:A9) to return the max number cuz I need that info too.
And
=VLOOKUP(MAX(A1:A9), A1:B9, 2, FALSE)
and this give me the answer if there is on max or the first it comes to for multiple maxes.
So I would get with this:
15
Pilot5
It does not give me
15
15
Pilot5
Pilot9
I want the results to show:
15 - for the max # of flights done
Pilot5
Pilot9 - for the names of the pilots that have the max flight count
So I noted above a more elegant way to do this in Google Sheets. And there are some very obscure ways out there, but here is something simple. The downside is it does show some extra information. Let us say your data is in A1:B9 and in A10 you have =MAX(A1:A9) [this is not strictly needed, but like you said, you want it anyway -- and it makes the formula a little less ugly]
Then in C1 put the formula =if(A1=A$10,B1,"") which will be blank if the pilot is not the max and have the pilot name otherwise. Drag that formula down through C9. Now in C10 (or wherever) put =TEXTJOIN(", ",true,C1:C9)
which will put together your pilot(s) separated by comma and space, and with blank entries omitted.

How do I sum data based on a PART of the headers name?

Say I have columns
/670 - White | /650 - black | /680 - Red | /800 - Whitest
These have data in their rows. Basically, I want to SUM their values together if their headers contain my desired string.
For modularity's sake, I wanted to merely specify to sum /670, /650, and /680 without having to mention the rest of the header text.
So, something like =SUMIF(a1:c1; "/NUM & /NUM & /NUM"; a2:c2)
That doesn't work, and honestly I don't know what i should be looking for.
Additional stuff:
I'm trying to think of the answer myself, is it possible to mention the header text as condition for ifs? Like: if A2="/650 - Black" then proceed to sum the next header. Is this possible?
Possibility it would not involve VBA, a draggable formula would be preferable!
At this point, I may as well request a version which handles the complete header name rather than just a part of it as I believe it to be difficult for formula code alone.
Thanks for having a look!
Let me know if I need to elaborate.
EDIT: In regards to data samples, any positive number will do actually, damn shame stack overflow doesn't support table markdown. Anyway, for example then..:
+-------------+-------------+-------------+-------------+-------------+
| A | B | C | D | E |
+---+-------------+-------------+-------------+-------------+-------------+
| 1 |/650 - Black |/670 - White |/800 - White |/680 - Red |/650 - Black |
+---+-------------+-------------+-------------+-------------+-------------+
| 2 | 250 | 400 | 100 | 300 | 125 |
+---+-------------+-------------+-------------+-------------+-------------+
I should have clarified:
The number range for these headers would go from /100 - /9999 and no more than that.
EDIT:
Progress so far:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1GiJKFcPWzG5bDsNt93eG7WS_M5uuVk9cvkt2VGSbpxY/edit?usp=sharing
Formula:
=SUMPRODUCT((A2:D2*
(MID($A$1:$D$1,2,4)=IF(LEN($H$1)=4,$H$1&"",$H$1&" ")))+(A2:D2*
(MID($A$1:$D$1,2,4)=IF(LEN($I$1)=4,$I$1&"",$I$1&" ")))+(A2:D2*
(MID($A$1:$D$1,2,4)=IF(LEN($J$1)=4,$J$1&"",$J$1&" "))))
Apparently, each MID function is returning false with each F9 calculation.
EDIT EDIT:
Okay! I found my issue, it's the /being read when you ALSO mentioned that it wasn't required. Man, I should stop skimming!
Final Edit:
=SUMPRODUCT((RETURNSUM*
(MID(HEADER,2,4)=IF(LEN(Match5)=4,Match5&"",Match5&" ")))+(RETURNSUM*
(MID(HEADER,2,4)=IF(LEN(Match6)=4,Match6&"",Match6&" ")))+(RETURNSUM*
(MID(HEADER,2,4)=IF(LEN(Match7)=4,Match7&"",Match7&" ")))
The idea is that Header and RETURNSUM will become match criteria like the matches written above, that way it would be easier to punch new criterion into the search table. As of the moment, it doesn't support multiple rows/dragging.
I have knocked up a couple of formulas that will achieve what you are looking for. For ease I have made the search input require the number only as pressing / does not automatically type into the formula bar. I apologise for the length of the answer, I got a little carried away with the explanation.
I have set this up for 3 criteria located in J1, K1 and L1.
Here is the output I achieved:
Formula 1 - SUMPRODUCT():
=SUMPRODUCT((A4:G4*(MID($A$1:$G$1,2,4)=IF(LEN($J$1)=4,$J$1&"",$J$1&" ")))+(A4:G4*(MID($A$1:$G$1,2,4)=IF(LEN($K$1)=4,$K$1&"",$K$1&" ")))+(A4:G4*(MID($A$1:$G$1,2,4)=IF(LEN($L$1)=4,$L$1&"",$L$1&" "))))
Sumproduct(array1,[array2]) behaves as an array formula without needed to be entered as one. Array formulas break down ranges and calculate them cell by cell (in this example we are using single rows so the formula will assess columns seperately).
(A4:G4*(MID($A$1:$G$1,2,4)=IF(LEN($J$1)=4,$J$1&"",$J$1&" ")))
Essentially I have broken the Sumproduct() formula into 3 identical parts - 1 for each search condition. (A4:G4*: Now, as the formula behaves like an array, we will multiply each individual cell by either 1 or 0 and add the results together.
1 is produced when the next part of the formula is true and 0 for when it is false (default numeric values for TRUE/FALSE).
(MID($A$1:$G$1,2,4)=IF(LEN($J$1)=4,$J$1&"",$J$1&" "))
MID(text,start_num,num_chars) is being used here to assess the 4 digits after the "/" and see whether they match with the number in the 3 cells that we are searching from (in this case the first one: J1). Again, as SUMPRODUCT() works very much like an array formula, each cell in the range will be assessed individually.
I have then used the IF(logical_test,[value_if_true],[value_if_false]) to check the length of the number that I am searching. As we are searching for a 4 digit text string, if the number is 4 digits then add nothing ("") to force it to a text string and if it is not (as it will have to be 3 digits) add 1 space to the end (" ") again forcing it to become a text string.
The formula will then perform the calculation like so:
The MID() formula produces the array: {"650 ","670 ","800 ","680 ","977 ","9999","143 "}. This combined with the first search produces {TRUE,FALSE,FALSE,FALSE,FALSE,FALSE,FALSE} which when multiplied by A4:G4
(remember 0 for false and 1 for true) produces this array: {250,0,0,0,0,0,0} essentially pulling the desired result ready to be summed together.
Formula 2: =SUM(IF(Array)): [This formula does not work for 3 digit numbers as they will exist within the 4 digit numbers! I have included it for educational purposes only]
=SUM(IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH($J$1,$A$1:$G$1)),A8:G8),IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH($K$1,$A$1:$G$1)),A8:G8),IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH($L$1,$A$1:$G$1)),A8:G8))
The formula will need to be entered as an array (once copy and pasted while still in the formula bar hit CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER)
This formula works in a similar way, SUM() will add together the array values produced where IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH() columns match the result column.
SEARCH() will return a number when it finds the exact characters in a cell which represents it's position in number of characters. By using ISNUMBER() I am avoiding having to do the whole MID() and IF(LEN()=4,""," ") I used in the previous formula as TRUE/FALSE will be produced when a match is found regardless of it's position or cell formatting.
As previously mentioned, this poses a problem as 999 can be found within 9999 etc.
The resulting array for the first part is: {250,FALSE,FALSE,FALSE,FALSE,FALSE,FALSE} (if you would like to see the array you can highlight that part of the formula and calculate with F9 but be sure to highlight the exact brackets for that part of the formula).
I hope I have explained this well, feel free to ask any questions about stuff that you don't understand. It is good to see people keen to learn and not just fishing for a fast answer. I would be more than happy to help and explain in more depth.
I start this solution with the names in an array, you can read the header names into an array with not too much difficulty.
Sub test()
Dim myArray(1 To 4) As String
myArray(1) = "/670 - White"
myArray(2) = "/650 - black"
myArray(3) = "/680 - Red"
myArray(4) = "/800 - Whitest"
For Each ArrayValue In myArray
'Find position of last character
endposition = InStr(1, ArrayValue, " - ", vbTextCompare)
'Grab the number section from the string, based on starting and ending positions
stringvalue = Mid(ArrayValue, 2, endposition - 2)
'Convert to number
NumberValue = CLng(stringvalue)
'Add to total
Total = Total + NumberValue
Next ArrayValue
'Print total
Debug.Print Total
End Sub
This will print the answer to the debug window.

Creation of vector of unknown size in Excel

I am attempting to translate my existing Matlab code into Numbers (basically Excel). In Matlab, I have the following code:
clear all; clc;
n = 30
x = 1:(n-1)
T = 295;
D = T./(n-x)
E = T/n
for i=1:(n-2)
C(i) = D(i+1) - D(i)
end
hold on
plot(x(1:end-1), C, 'rx')
plot(x, D, 'bx')
I believe everything has been solved by your formulas, there are parts of them that I don't understand otherwise I would try to figure the rest out myself. Attached is the result (Also you might like to know that the formulas you gave work and are recognized in Numbers). Im trying to figure out why (x) begins at 2 as I feel as though it should start at 1?
Also it is clear that the realistic results for the formulas only exist under certain conditions i.e. column E > 0. That being the case, what would be the easiest way to chart data with a filter so that only certain data is charted?
(Using Excel...)
Suppose you put your input values T & n in A1 & B1 respectively.
You could generate x, D & C In columns C,D & E with:
C1: =IF(ROW()<$A$1,ROW(),"")
D1: =IF(LEN(C1)>0,$A$2/($A$1-C1),"")
E1: =IF(LEN(D2)>0,D2-D1,"")
You could then pull all 3 columns down as far as you need to generate the full length of your vectors. If you then want to chart these, simply use these columns as inputs.
