Is there a way to sum after each three consecutive blanks in Excel?
enter image description here
the image is an illustration of the result I want to accomplish.
Use this formula:
=SUM(INDEX(B2:J2,AGGREGATE(15,6,COLUMN(D2:J2)/((B2:H2="")*(C2:I2="")*(D2:J2 = "")),1)):J2)

Let's say,
Sheet1:A1 = x
Sheet2 contents look like
x 3 3 4
y 0 2 1
Is there an excel formula that could match Sheet1:A1 with Sheet2:A1 (basically the value 'x') and add the other cells in that row (3,3,4). The result (Sum='10') should get updated at Sheet1:C4 lets say.
I tried SUMIF but that shows the content of only one column due to the restriction that it can handle only the matchable array size. I know this can be achieved through VBA, but just wanted to know if a formula is available.
TIA!
This formula will do what you want:
=SUM(SUMIF(Sheet2!A:A,A1,INDIRECT("Sheet2!" & {"B:B","C:C","D:D"})))
It will iterate through the columns doing individual SUMIF() on each and then adding the results.
If you want more columns or different change the address in the array to the columns desired.
Try the following
=SUM(IF(Sheet2!A1:A99=A1,Sheet2!B1:D99,0))
Note that this is an array formula, so it must be entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter.
What this formula does is converts any rows on Sheet2 without x in column A to zeros in B:D and then sums what is left.
Similarly, you could use
=SUMPRODUCT((Sheet2!A1:A99=A1)*Sheet2!B1:D99)
and you wouldn't have to enter it as an array formula.
For a non-volatile, non-array formula, try this
=SUM(INDEX(Sheet2!B:D,MATCH(Sheet1!A1,Sheet2!A:A,0),))
I have two cells with sum formula that is cell A = "=10+20" & cell B = "=3+20". I want to concatenate their formula in cell C as ="10+20+3+20". And I don't want to convert these cells into value. Requesting the teams helps please
Try:
=CONCATENATE(FORMULATEXT(A1),"+",RIGHT(FORMULATEXT(B1),LEN(FORMULATEXT(B1))-1))
=A1&"+"&right(B1,len(B1)-1)
The & is short form for concatenate. you need to add the + in between the contents of the two cells. It will display your formulas as a string. The right function will strip off the = sign from the B1 formula.
If your formulas in A and B are actually formulas displaying values as in the image below, then you want to use the following formula. It is set up for row 2. And hats off to Shash for giving light to this option
=FORMULATEXT(A2)&"+"&RIGHT(FORMULATEXT(B2),LEN(FORMULATEXT(B2))-1)
Proof of Concept
I want to split the characters of a cell into columns.
For example if cell A1 is the number 5678, then I want to transform it to B1=5, B2=6, B3=7, B4=8.
How can I do this? I tried with =MID($A1, COLUMNS($A$1:A$1), 1)
However this split the characters into different cells in a row.
I do not mind if it will be done by formula or VBA.
B1: =MID($A1,COLUMNS($A:A),1)
and fill right
In your original post, you indicated you wanted to split the value into columns. If you want to split it into separate rows, then, change columns to rows:
B1: =MID($A$1,ROWS($1:1),1)
and fill down.
i want to split the value of the excel cell in two values, but still have them only in one cell. I mean: i have cells with for example 40/50. Many of them. I want to count sum of numbers in front of / and the second sum of numbers behind /. Is it somehow possible without splitting those numbers in two different columns?
thx
If all your cells in range A1:A4 are in format x/y,
to sum all x use: =SUM(1*LEFT(A1:A4,FIND("/",A1:A4)-1))
to sum all y use: =SUM(1*RIGHT(A1:A4,LEN(A1:A4)-FIND("/",A1:A4)))
both formulas are array formulas, so you should press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to evaluate them.
How would you find the biggest difference/change in values of a list of numbers in Excel?
An example of what I'm looking for is 1,3,4,5,9,10,11,13
The value I would look for is 4 as this is the biggest difference (between 5 and 9).
Is there a way to do this with a list in Excel?
A picture is worth a thousand words? :p
EDIT:
Description added:
As shown in the image, put the formula in =A2-A1 in Cell B2 and then drag it down. Once you have your values, use the Max formula to get the maximum value as shown in Cell D5
Add another column to contain the difference. Assuming your values are in column A, then the formula would be "=A2-A1" copied down the list. Few ways after this.
(1) You can eyeball which is largest
(2) you can copy values (make sure is values) to a this column and sort descending
(3) You can build pivot off that this column. and double click the largest to find the detail
If values are in distinct cells (A1:A8):
=MAX($A$2:$A$8-$A$1:$A$7)
seems to work (as an array formula, enter with Ctrl+Shift+Enter).
Put the values in a column.Say, Column A
In cell B1; write a formula. =A2-A1
Copy the same formula to the entire Column B, for every value in column A
Go to the end of column B, and write a new formula, =MAX (B1:B)
Create a new column with the differences:
=A2-A1
And drag down.
Find the max value:
=MAX(B1:B9)
Find the index of the max difference value:
=MATCH(MAX(B1:B9);B1:B9;0)
