I have
Year 1 2 3 4 5 6
I'm trying to make it so that each year number 1-6 is equal to another number value i.e. Year 1 is equal to 5. Year 2 is equal to 6.
You will not be able to store one value in a cell and use a different value for calculation. However you may do this calculation with the help of a lookup from another table,
Assuming you have the years in Column A and the corresponding mappings are in Column E and F, you can use the below formula in Column B,
=INDEX(E:F,MATCH(A1,E:E,0),2) * 2
This formula lookups the value in A1 in the table E:F and returns the corresponding Column F element. That is finally multiplied with the 2 to show your result. Instead of just using just A1 for multiplying by 2, you should be using INDEX(E:F,MATCH(A1,E:E,0),2). Hope this helps.

Let's say i have the below list of Whole numbers in Column A. If you observe the list of numbers, you will see that number "5" and 6 is missing.
A
3
2
4
1
7
8
what I want to achieve is to place (sort) the numbers on the column such that each cell value will take its position according to excel row numbering. which means:
I should have something like this
1
2
3
4
7
If it's as simple as stated, this should work.
In column B, say:
=IF(COUNTIF(A:A,ROW())>0,ROW(),"")
Note: It does not account for duplicates, or anything complicated really.
Further Note: To clarify, all this does is check if the row that the formula is in, is in column A. If it is, then it returns the current row.
I need a formula that looks for a value in column A, finds the smallest value of that row and displays the corresponding value of a row on the top of the sheet (row 3 in my case) where the smallest value has been found.
also would like to find the second and third smallest value and display the value of row 3.
For example: I need to lookup X in the first column, find the smallest value in that row (1) and display the value on the row on top of that column (D)
and second smallest value for X to display C, third smallest for X to display E.
enter code here
A B C D E F
Z 6 8 9 5 2
X 7 2 1 3 7
Y 9 2 6 1 6
This codes should work:
=INDEX($B$2:$F$2,MATCH(MIN(IF($B$1=$A$3:$A$5,$B$3:$F$5)),INDEX($B$3:$F$5,MATCH($B$1,$A$3:$A$5,0),),0))

Suppose your data are in range A1:F4 as shown below:
You can use the following formula to find the 1st, 2nd and 3rd smallest value in the row starting "X". Put it in Cell I2 and drag it down.
=SMALL(INDEX($B$2:$F$4,MATCH("X",$A$2:$A$4,0),),H2)
Then you can use the following formula to find the corresponding value in the row starting "Z":
=INDEX(INDEX($B$2:$F$4,MATCH("X",$A$2:$A$4,0)-1,),,MATCH(I2,INDEX($B$2:$F$4,MATCH("X",$A$2:$A$4,0),),0))
It is basic INDEX+MATCH approach. If you have problem understanding the solution, I suggest you to google some online tutorials on the use of INDEX+MATCH. SMALL function is used to find the nth smallest value as requested.
Cheers :)
I want to sum a row like
A B C D E
2 4 3 5 5
I want the formula to sum from A1 to some column number like It can be up to column 4 (D1) or up to column 5 (E1). I can retrieve column number but how to add up to that column number is what I am asking for.
Start of sum is fixed A1 but end is dynamic (not fixed)
Any solution will be highly appreciated
Say we want to sum up part of the first row.
Place the first column number in A2 and the last column number in A3. Then:
=SUM(INDEX(1:1,A2):INDEX(1:1,A3))
In your posted example, you would put 1 in A2.
It's probably easiest to sum up the entire row =SUM(2:2) (to sum the values in row 2) or if you have some other data at the beginning (or you want the sum to show up at the beginning) you can do something like =SUM(B2:XFD2)
I got that last column name here: https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-last-column-name-in-an-Excel-file
and checked it was the same as newer versions here: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/excel-specifications-and-limits-1672b34d-7043-467e-8e27-269d656771c3#ID0EBABAAA=Newer_versions
***1 2 3***
a 2 3
b 3 4
c 4 3
d 5 2
so I know to get the highest value I do
=INDEX(column1, MATCH(MAX(column3), column3, 0))
... which would give me 'b'
now I want to get the second highest value based on the column 3 but because there are two cells with 3 (which is the second highest value) I want to use the one that has the lowest value in column 2 based on those two rows. Is this possible?
Use a 'helper' column that adds column C + (column B ÷ 10) and use a modification of your original formula on that column.
The standard formula in F5 is,
=INDEX(A$2:A$5, MATCH(AGGREGATE(14, 6, D$2:D$5, ROW(1:1)), D$2:D$5, 0))
Fill down as necessary.
A B
1 5
2 10
2 15
3 20
I want to calculate percentile for a column of values B if A is equal say 2. That's I want to get range of B2,B3 and calculate percentile of this.
So basically the question is: how do I select range in one column with the checking with another column?
I.e. it works perfectly with SumIf and CountIf, I just need the same with PercentileIf. Thx!
This will give you the 25th percentile of A1:A6 for all cells where the value in B1:B6 equals 2:
=PERCENTILE.INC(IF(B1:B6=2,A1:A6,""),0.25)
It's an array formula and must be entered with Ctrl-Shift-Enter.
