How to find max value for rows of n - excel

I have below data with grouping variable ("Date") and a value variable ("Value"):
Date Value
2/1/2014 7
4/4/2014 8
6/7/2014 8
8/10/2014 88
3/1/2015 87
4/4/2015 65
7/7/2015 55
9/10/2015 43
I want to extract the maximum value for rows of 4 such that I have the maximum values of 88 (cuz first 4 rows) and 87 (the next 4 rows).
How do I do this?

With data in columns A and B, in D1 enter:
="B" & (ROWS($1:1)-1)*4+2 & ":B" & (ROWS($1:1)-1)*4+5
and copy down and in E1 enter:
=MAX(INDIRECT(D1))
and copy down:
Column D defines the data groups and column E gives the max for each group.

Assuming your data is located at A1:B9; enter this formula in C2 and copy till last row of data:
=IF(MOD(ROWS(A$2:A2),4)<>1,"",MAX(B2:B5))

Need a help to fill the below table using Excel formula
Kindly find the below sample output
enter image description here
Using your posted "database" graph (the first one) as a reference and assuming that it starts in cell A1, I put your "required output" data in F1:J5. "A" starts in F2, F1 is blank and the dates are in cells G1:J1.
In G2 put this Array formula and then fill down to the last letter "D": = INDEX($B$1:$B$17,SMALL(IF($C$2:$C$17=$F2,ROW($C$2:$C$17),""),COLUMN()-6)). Then fill across. The "COLUMN()-6" in the Small function assumes that you put your "required out" data in the range F1:J5; otherwise, you will need to change it manually.

Find column and row name based on search criteria

I have the following Excel spreadsheet:
A B C D E F G
1 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Search criteria: 60
2 Asset 1 15 85 90 70 Column name: Q4
3 Asset 2 40 80 45 60 Row name: Asset 2
4 Asset 3 30 50 55 10
5
In Cells A1:E4 I have different assets with their performance from quarter Q1-Q4.
In Cell G2 and G3 I want that the assets and the quarter are displayed based on the value that is put in Cell G1. In this case the search criteria is 60 so the result is column name Q4 and row name Asset 2.
With VLOOKUP or INDEX & MATCH I would only be able to find the the value 60 based on the criterias in Cell G2 and G3 but not the other way around like I need it.
Do you have any idea of a formula that could solve this issue?
NOTE: All values in the table are unique.
You could use something like this (entered as array formulas using Ctrl+Shift+Enter)
Try the following...
G2:
=INDEX(B1:E1,MATCH(G1,INDEX(B2:E4,MATCH(G3,A2:A4,0),0),0))
G3, confirmed with CONTROL+SHIFT+ENTER:
=INDEX(A2:A4,SMALL(IF(B2:E4=G1,ROW(A2:A4)-ROW(A2)+1),1))

How to use index and match concept to retrieve values from 2nd row and 3rd column or 1st row and 4th column and so on

Jan Feb Mar Apr May
1 10 110 101 11 90
2 20 111 102 12 91
3 30 112 103 13 92

5 50 114 105 15 94
How to use index and match concept to retrieve values from 2nd row and 3rd column or 1st row and 4th column and so on
If you wanted to match cell $B$2 (Row 2, Column "February") you could use the following formula:
INDEX(B1:B5, MATCH(91, E1:E5, 0))
This would give the value 111, which is the value of $B$2
The INDEX function in Excel takes a range (B1:B5) and an index into that range, and returns the value. In an INDEX MATCH, the index used is actually a call to the MATCH function. Here, I obtained an index of 2 when MATCHing the value 91 in the range E1:E5.
In English you might read this call as saying "Find the value in the range B1 to B5 whose index is the same as the value 91 in the range E1 to E5."
If the months are in B1:F1, row labels in A2:A6 and main body of the table in B2:F6 then you can get the value at the intersection of the nth row and kth column of B2:F6 using this formula
=INDEX(B2:F6,n,k)
As per Tim's answer you can derive the n and k values using MATCH functions based on the values in the column headers and row labels, e.g. matching "Apr" and 4 will give you the value at the intersection, i.e. 14
and the formula would look like this
=INDEX(B2:F6,MATCH(4,A2:A6,0),MATCH("feb",B1:F1,0))

Index/Match values from a column using a grid of a different length (Excel 2010)

I am trying to index match values from a long column to a grid of a different length. It looks like this
Word Number Column X Column Y Column Z
This 55 55 33 12
is 62 62 42 18
The 78 78 31 24
42
31
12
18
24
33
The grid (Column X,Y,Z) contains all the values from the Number Column. What I am trying to do is basically index the "Word" column, using a value from the "Number" Column, and looking it up in the value array of X Y Z.
Example (because this is confusing):
Input the Value 33 from the Number column, look for the value in the columns XYZ, and then return the Word "This".
Input the Value 18 from the number column, look for the value in columns XYZ, return the word "is"
etc...
Any help would be very much appreciated!
there is a quicker way and shorter formula to do this:
=IFERROR(INDEX(A:A,IFERROR(MATCH(B2,C:C,0),IFERROR(MATCH(B2,D:D,0),MATCH(B2,E:E,0))),1),"not found")
paste that into, any column really, into row 2 and drag down, it will return the words you require, if value not found it will return "not found"
Here is your spreadsheet starting at cell A1 (without your headers):
A B C D E

2 is 62 62 42 18

Copy this into cell C10, and drag the formula across to cell E10:
=IF(ISERROR(IF(ISERROR(IF(ISERROR(MATCH($B$11,C1:C3,0)),"",CONCATENATE("A",MATCH($B$11,C1:C3,0)))),"",INDIRECT(IF(ISERROR(MATCH($B$11,C1:C3,0)),"",CONCATENATE("A",MATCH($B$11,C1:C3,0)))))),"",IF(ISERROR(IF(ISERROR(MATCH($B$11,C1:C3,0)),"",CONCATENATE("A",MATCH($B$11,C1:C3,0)))),"",INDIRECT(IF(ISERROR(MATCH($B$11,C1:C3,0)),"",CONCATENATE("A",MATCH($B$11,C1:C3,0))))))
Copy this to the "output" cell B12 and use cell B11 as your "input":
=CONCATENATE(C10,D10,E10)
VIOLA!!! You're done!
Proof:
The MATCH() function will look for your value in an array (the range). If it finds it, it returns the index of that array (indexed at 1), otherwise it throws an error. Be sure to set the 3rd argument to "0" so that it only looks for EXACT matches.
Paste this into C14:
=MATCH($B$11,C1:C3,0)
Next, we check if the MATCH() function did indeed throw an error. Paste this into C15:
=IF(ISERROR(C14),"",C14)
Now we have the row number of our matched value, so we will use the CONCATENATE() function to join it to our "word column", A, for use in the next step. Paste this into C16:
=CONCATENATE("A",C15)
Using that string from above, use the INDIRECT() function to turn it into an actual cell reference. Paste this into C17:
=INDIRECT(C16)
And finally, check if a legitimate cell reference was created. If so, return the word, otherwise return "". Paste this into C18:
=IF(ISERROR(C17),"",C17)
Lastly, drag the formulas from C14:C18 to E14:E18, and concatenate the results. The cells in row 18 should match the cells in row 10.
Hope this helps :)

Index & Match formula using IF and ISERROR

I have data in columns C & D. A range of ten students in A1 to A10 are identified with roll numbers. In Column C and corresponding Column D, there are 8 students from roll number 1 to 8 (Column C) and their marks (Column D).
I need a formula in column B to automatically extract the marks from column D against the roll numbers in Column A and the two cells in column B (marks of roll number 9 & 10) may remain blank.
Any Excel formula or VBA macro solution is much appreciated.
Column-A Column-B Column-C Column-D
1 50 1 50
2 55 2 55
3 35 3 35
4 60 4 60
5 78 5 78
6 45 6 45
7 39 7 39
8 82 8 82
9
10
Try using VLOOKUP with IFERROR, i.e. this formula in B2 copied down
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A2,C$2:D$9,2,0),"")
VLOOKUP will return the required marks when the roll number exists.....or an error which IFERRORconverts to a blank.
The simplest solution would seem to be copy and paste. Alternative solutions would seem to be relatively simple (eg #barry's) but if you really want INDEX, MATCH, IF and ISERROR then maybe:
=IF(ISERROR(INDEX(D:D,MATCH(A2,C:C,0))),"",INDEX(D:D,MATCH(A2,C:C,0)))
