my excel sheet
Basically I want to lump all strikes together by certain delta ranges and average them. I am trying to do this in the V5:X19 area.
I want to average all values in column G based of what is in column C given the same row
So in cell X6 I would like the formula to say "Average of all strikes widths(column G) in-between -3 and -1.1." and for it to copy down to average all widths with delta(column C) between -1.1 and -0.55, -0.55 and -0.25, ect.
Can anyone help?
Try this(untested) in cell X6.
=averageifs(G:G,C:C,">="&V6,C:C,"<"&V7)
=SUMIFS(C:C,,">="&V6,C:C,"<"&W6)/COUNTIFS(C:C,">="&V6,C:C,"<"&W6)

Imagine you have spreadsheet with data in a fixed # of contiguous rows.. let's say row 1 through row 20
Now let's say you have 3 columns of interest.
A, B and C
Column A is a label column.. the data in there are just string labels.. let's say types of canned food.. Tuna, Spam, Sardines, etc.
Column B is our number column.. let's say it is prices. e.g. 2 for Tuna, 5 for Spam and 3 for Sardines. These prices can change often very rapidly.. ok so prices are not the best example but let's imagine that prices change rapidly.
Now Column C is where we want to put the formula.
I would like to have a formula in Column C that will pull the labels from Column A, based on their prices in column B and rank them from highest to lowest.. that is C1 would calculate to "Spam", C2 to "Sardines" and C3 to "Tuna"
right now there are 20 rows of data.. but maybe at some other point there might be 30 or 6 or 40, etc.
So can someone help me out with the formula or at least explain what functions I need to use and the general idea involved? thanks
=IF(A2:A200<>"";SORTBY(A2:A200;B2:B200;-1);"")
You can simply use SORT formula. In this case =SORT(A1:B1000,2,-1) where A1:B1000 is range to be sorted, second parameter 2 is column number from range to sort by, 3rd parameter for order (-1 is desceding).
Place formula in C1 and you will get spilled array.
I have a table of data where ratings are given as V good - 3, Good - 2, Avg - 1 but if the value is NA I want to exclude that from Avg.
I do have values stored as Good, V Good, Avg against the record.
Any excel formula for this to calculate rating out of 5.
Thanks in advance.
Please try this formula. It's designed for entry in a cell in row 2 from where it can be copied down.
=IFERROR(SUMPRODUCT((COUNTIF(C2:E2,{"V Good","Good","Avg"})*{3,2,1}))/SUMPRODUCT((COUNTIF(C2:E2,{"V Good","Good","Avg"}))), "NA")
There are only 3 columns in your example. Therefore I don't understand your request for a "rating out of 5". However, you can use the same formula on a larger range, of 5 or more columns. Just change both range references to include more columns, like E2:G2. The important thing is to change both to the same size of range.
I have simple problem, but I've not be able to get an answer from searching. I require a column to calculate the number of the nth occurrence of a value. It's best explained in this picture
I require a method to calculate column B.
I'd be very grateful for any help.
Are you looking to merely provide a count of the distinct entries of column A in column B? Or merely add a formula to come up with the table in your link?
If the latter, then the formula to write in cell B2 is:
=COUNTIF(A$2:A2,A2)
then copy/paste it down column B. Note - if your data is both a Date and Time, but the cell is formatted to only display a date, you may not get the results you want. You'd need to interject a new column with a "floor" calculation to round the date/time value to a date (Excel date times are decimal, with integer part dictating the date, and remaining 0.0 -> 1.0 dictating the time of day)
If you just want to derive a table of the counts of distinct entries in column A, then a pivot table will do this for you - simple add a pivot table to cover the data in column A, then select column A into the rows category, and then also drag it into the values category, ensuring the field is set to "Count of". You should then have a table with the distinct entries in your data set in one column, and the count of their occurrences in the other column.
You can use the COUNTIF worksheet function, with a relative address.
Eg. In cell B2, enter this formula:
=COUNTIF(A$2:A2,A2)
And then fill-down.
Use the following formula to generate the required series:
=COUNTIF($A$1:A1,A1) and strech(copy) it in all the cells
This will generate result like this:
A 1 COUNTIF($A$1:A1,A1)
A 2 COUNTIF($A$1:A2,A2)
C 1 COUNTIF($A$1:A3,A3)
C 2 COUNTIF($A$1:A4,A4)
B 1 COUNTIF($A$1:A5,A5)
B 2 COUNTIF($A$1:A6,A6)
A 3 COUNTIF($A$1:A7,A7)
C 3 COUNTIF($A$1:A8,A8)
D 1 COUNTIF($A$1:A9,A9)
D 2 COUNTIF($A$1:A10,A10)
D 3 COUNTIF($A$1:A11,A11)
D 4 COUNTIF($A$1:A12,A12)
I have a spreadsheet with different products, listing units and retail value sold like the example below
Product Units Value
A 10 100
B 15 80
C 30 560
I'd like to compare the Average Selling Price with the Median Selling price, so I am looking for a quick formula to accurately calculate the median.
The median function requires the entire series, so for Product A above I would need 10 instances of 10 etc. How can I calculate the Median quickly considering the condensed form of my data?
Without writing your own VBA function to do this there are a couple of approaches that can be taken.
The first expands the data from its compressed frequency count format to generate the full set of observations. This can be done manually or formulaically. On the assumption the latter is required, it can be achieved using a few columns.
All the blue cells are formulae.
Column Eis simply the cumulative of column B and F is an adjusted version of this. Column H is just the values 1 to 55, the total number of observations given by cell L2. Column I uses the MATCH() with its final argument as 1 to match each observation in H against the adjusted cumulative in F. Column J uses the INDEX() function to generate the value of the observation. (Observations 1-10 have value 100, 11-25 have value 80 and 26-55 have value 560 in this example). The MEDIAN() function is used in cell M2 with column J as its argument.
This approach can be refined to take account of varying numbers of products and data points through the use of the OFFSET function to control the range arguments of the MATCH(), INDEX() and MEDIAN functions. And, of course, adjacent cells in columns I and J could be combined using a single formula - I've shown them separately for ease of explanation.
The second approach involves sorting the data by value (so in this case the data rows would become Product B in row 2, product A in row 3 and product C left as-is in row 4). It is then a case of identifying the middle observation number (if the number of observations is odd) or the middle pair of observation numbers (if the number of observations is even) and then determining the value(s) corresponding to this/these middle observation(s). In this approach the adjusted cumulative in column F is still used but rather than explicitly calculating the values in column I and J for every observation it can now be restricted to just the middle observation(s).
I think there is no way around compromises. Either using big amounts of helper cells or having the table sorted by the values.
Helper cells:
Formula in F4:AS6:
=IF(COLUMN()<COLUMN($F$4)+$B4,$C4,"end")
Formula in D2:
=MEDIAN(F4:AS6)
Sorted:
Formula in F4 downwards:
=SUM($B$3:B3)+1
Formula in D2:
=SUM(LOOKUP(INT(SUM(B4:B6)/2+{0.5,1}),F4:F6,C4:C6))/2
I have 3 variables that I need to take a weighted average of.
I want to excel to calculate all possible combination of weights by .01 increments.
I have three columns in excel. Weight A, Weight B and Weight C. Weight A = 1-sum(Weight B + Weight C).
Fix Weight C to .01, Cell in column B will be = cell above + 0.01 (where the very first cell is just a value cell of 0.01)
This works, but then I have to manually search for where Weight A becomes negative and then manually change the cell in column B back to 0.01 (next cell continues the formula of cell above + 0.01), and then manually change the cell in column C to 0.02 and drag it down.
As you can see, I would have to do this for C=.03, .04, .05 ....etc. And then fix column B as .01, .02, .03 etc.
Is there a faster way of doing this? i.e. Excel finding all possible combinations of the sum of 3 cells summing to one?
Thanks in advance.
I believe I have a grasp on what you are trying to accomplish. Would your results look similar to the following?
The formulas in A2:C2 are,
=1-SUM(B2:C2) ◄ A2
=IF(SUM(A1)=0, 0.01, B1+0.01) ◄ B2
=IF(SUM(A1)=0, MAX(C$1:C1)+0.01, C1) ◄ C2
Fill down as necessary.
