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.

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 am trying to build a dataset from an online questionnaire. In this questionnaire, participants were asked to name 6 items. These items are represented with numbers from 1 to 6 (order of mention does not matter). Afterwards, participants were asked to rank those items from most important to least important (order here matters). Right now I have three columns "Named items", "Item ranked" and "Rank." The last column represents the position at which each case was ranked at. Thus, the idea would be to look at the number in the first column "Named item" and search for its position on the second column "Items Ranked" and return its position to the third column corresponding row.
Since the numbers go from 1 to 6, every six rows the process has to start again on the 7th row. I have a total of 186 participants, which means there's a total of 1116 items. What would be the most efficient way of doing this and preventing human error?
Here is an example of how the sheet looks like done manually:
+----------------------+-----------------------------+------+
| Order of named items | Items ranked (# = Identity) | Rank |
+----------------------+-----------------------------+------+
| 1 | 2 | 4 |
| 2 | 5 | 1 |
| 3 | 6 | 6 |
| 4 | 1 | 5 |
| 5 | 4 | 2 |
| 6 | 3 | 3 |
| 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 2 | 2 | 2 |
| 3 | 3 | 3 |
| 4 | 4 | 4 |
| 5 | 5 | 5 |
| 6 | 6 | 6 |
| 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 2 | 2 | 2 |
| 3 | 3 | 3 |
| 4 | 4 | 4 |
| 5 | 5 | 5 |
| 6 | 6 | 6 |
| 1 | 5 | 3 |
| 2 | 6 | 4 |
| 3 | 1 | 5 |
| 4 | 2 | 6 |
| 5 | 3 | 1 |
| 6 | 4 | 2 |
| 1 | 2 | 2 |
| 2 | 1 | 1 |
| 3 | 6 | 4 |
| 4 | 3 | 5 |
| 5 | 4 | 6 |
| 6 | 5 | 3 |
+----------------------+-----------------------------+------+
You can use this non volatile function:
=MATCH(A2,INDEX(B:B,INT((ROW(1:1)-1)/6)*6+2):INDEX(B:B,INT((ROW(1:1)-1)/6)*6+7),0)
Assuming 1st column starts at A2 and second column at B2 use this formula in C2 copied down
=MATCH(A2,OFFSET(B$2,6*INT((ROWS(C$2:C2)-1)/6),0,6),0)
OFFSET returns the 6 cell range required and MATCH finds the position of the relevant item within that

I want to compose sales table for purchased and sold items to see total profit. It's easy to do when items are purchased and sold individually or as a lot. But how to handle situation when one buys collection of items and sells them one by one. For example, I buy a collection (C) of a hammer and a screwdriver and sell tools separately. If I would enter data into simple table as in the image, I would get wrong profit result.
When there are only two items, I could divide their purchase price randomly, but when there are many items and not all of them are yet sold, I can't easily see if this collection already made profit or not.
I expect correct output of profit. In this case collection cost was 10 and selling price of all collection items was 13. Thus it should show profit of 3, not loss of -7. I was thinking of adding 2 new column, like IsCollection, CollectionID. Then derive a formula, which would use either simple subtraction or would check price of a whole collection and subtract it from the sum of items that belong to that collection. Deriving such formula is another question... But maybe there is an easier way of accomplishing the same
I added a column COLLECTION to identify item who belong to a collection.
Then I used SUMIF to sum sell price for items which belong at the same collection.
Then I used IF in Profit column to use summed sell price or single sell price.
You need to define in some formula a range of cell (see below).
Problem: you can't add profit values to obtain Total profit.
I used opencalc (but it should be almost the same in Excel).

SUM_COLL (row2):

and so on.

=IF(A2<>"";E2-C2;D2-C2)

Update:
I added two more column to make Profit summable:
COUNT_COLL (row2):
=COUNTIF($A$1:$A$22;"="&A2)
COUNT_COLL (row3):
=COUNTIF($A$1:$A$22;"="&A3)
Profit_SUMMABLE (row2)
=IF(A2<>"";(E2-C2)/G2;D2-C2)
Profit_SUMMABLE (row3)
=IF(A3<>"";(E3-C3)/G3;D3-C3)

I would like to do the following data sorting/reshaping in excel. Is there a way to do this?
From this
+--------+-------+
| Sample | Value |
+--------+-------+
| 1 | 30 |
| 1 | 10 |
| 2 | 6 |
| 2 | 5 |
| 3 | 62 |
| 3 | 20 |
+--------+-------+
To this
+---------+---------+---------+
| Sample1 | Sample2 | Sample3 |
+---------+---------+---------+
| 30 | 6 | 62 |
| 10 | 5 | 20 |
+---------+---------+---------+
edit: please excuse my ugly table.
If 30 is in B2, please try in C2:
=OFFSET($B2,2*(COLUMN()-3),0)
copied across and down to suit.
I'm trying to find a solution without macros in excel for following problem:
There is a table containing ratings of a student for different time periods.
So the rating of the student with ID=1 was 1 from January to April and 3 from Mai to June.
Two other students had a constant ranking (6 and 9) from January to June
| A | B | C |D |
---| ----|------------|------------|-------|
1 | ID | START | END |RANKING|
2 | 1 | 01.01.2014 | 30.04.2014 | 1 |
3 | 1 | 01.05.2014 | 30.06.2014 | 3 |
4 | 2 | 01.01.2014 | 30.06.2014 | 6 |
5 | 3 | 01.01.2014 | 30.06.2014 | 9 |
Next table contains IDs (y axis) and Months (x axis)
| F | G | H | I | J | K | L |
---| ----|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|
1 | ID | 201401 | 201402 | 201403 | 201404 | 201405 | 201406 |
2 | 1 | | | | | | |
3 | 2 | | | | | | |
4 | 3 | | | | | | |
And I wish to feel this second table like this:
| ID | 201401 | 201402 | 201403 | 201404 | 201405 | 201406 |
| ----|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|
| 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 3 | 3 |
| 2 | 6 | 6 | 6 | 6 | 6 | 6 |
| 3 | 9 | 9 | 9 | 9 | 9 | 9 |
I tried to use Index and Match, but without any good results because I haven't found a posibility to use IF (if (
Could anybody help?
You can get what you're looking for with SUMPRODUCT
Given the layout you provided, this formula should work when put in G2 and filled down and over
=SUMPRODUCT(--($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.
