Conditional Maximum (find The Maximum 'value' For Each Individual 'type')
May 15, 2009
I have two columns of data. The first column is the 'type' and the second column is the 'value'. I need to find the maximum 'value' for each individual 'type'
The 'types' are not necessarily next to each other and the data cannot be sorted to do so.
Example:
type value
A 15
B 6
A 21
C 7
B 13
I need to be able to say the MAX for 'A' is 21, the MAX for 'B' is 13 and the MAX for 'C' is 7.
Look in Column E and find the MAX value. Once you find the MAX value, (let's say E27) display the date that's in C27. I bet this is really easy but I've been screwing around with it for over a half hour and can't get the correct result.
I was hoping that my formula would give me the count number based on the Maximum time (latest time) and the Name field...My result is a 0 instead of 62 (the correct answer).
This is an example of my data, lets say they are heights of trees. The number is the tree individual, t2 is the age of the tree, height_t2 is the height of the tree at the age t2, and t_ current is the age of the tree individual at present/current. I would like a formula for the t_current column that will pick out the current age of the tree individual and apply it to the age years previous. i.e the t_current age should be repeated for each height measurement for that tree individual, i have filled it in as an example.
In the attached excel sheet, i am trying to find conditional maximum of a set of numbers. In Cell C3, I have the formula =MAX(($S$4:$S$500=$W$4)*(M4:M500)) entered as array function and is working fine. In Cell J3, I have the similar formula MAX(($S$4:$S$500=$W$4)*(J4:J500)) entered as array function.. This is not working...always gives zero. The difference between Range (m4:m500) and (j4:j500) is that, m4:m500 are all positive numbers and j4:j500 are negative.
Is it possible to apply a Conditional Format to the MAX Value in each Column and color the appropriate Name in ONE SHOT !? What I mean is - selecting range A2:D9 and applying a C.F. I managed to achieve that by applying two different Conditional Formats. Three separate conditions for Col. A and one condition for the remaining 3 columns (B,C,D).
I wanted to know if there was a way to find the Maximum value given a number of conditions are satisfied.
Similar to COUNTIFS and AVERAGEIFS, where you state the data range to use, the condition's range, the condition, then the next condition's range, the next condition, etc....
Here the maximum value is 212, Is there any way to find its corresponding date. Date in Row(A1:A5), Values in Row(B1:B5). Tried my best to get the date; but no way.
I am having trouble with large data sets of rents by market: trying to find the peak rent in a time-series, and then look for the next trough rent in time. I tried using the Newsletter 3 techniques which feels like the right direction, but I am not getting the nesting right or some of the parameters in the functions.
So, within each time-series I need to find the MAX value (peak rent), wherever that is in the array. Then I need to look to the right of that exact MAX value and find the exact MIN value (trough rent), whereever that is in the array (again, to the right of the MAX value).
The content of Cell A1 looks like this attccggttaattcccccaaaattt (only a,t,g,c -nucleotides). I want to know the max times C occurs in this cell and the position from the start. like that a, t, g.
here the answer is 5 times and distance is 13 from start.
I am looking for a way of finding the maximum value in column H for each row in a pre- filtered range using VBA.
For example, the result of of filtermacro1 may return several records derived from a database of several hundred records. In the example below, the name of the person is in column C, followed by their H column value.
Audrey Perkins, .5 Marc Bloomberg, 2.0 Matt Phillips, .5 Paul Pachson, 2.0
However, the H column value may not be the maximum value for the rows above, as there are other records for Audrey, Marc, Matt & Paul in the database.
If the names are matched to the max value in column H for each record it should read
Audrey Perkins, 1.0 Marc Bloomberg, 3.5 Matt Phillips, .5 Paul Pachson, 6.5
How would I query only the names in a pre-filtered range and obtain the highest value in column H for each ? These values then need to be copied to H7 in a sheet called Detention Register.
I spent couple of hours trying to figure this out, but without success. Please check the attached example. I need a formula that will find the max value (number of views in English anguage) in the column "I" and display the corresponding "Headline" value in the column "B". In the example it is "Headline 5".
I can not change position of the columns, i.e. "B" must remain "B" and "I" must remain "I". I experimented with Index and vlookup but to no success. I have outlook 2003.
I have inherited some legacy templates (Standard, Leave and Exception) which cannot be changed. I need to summarise them (Total) selecting the earliest start and the latest finish. (Sample attached). The templates are 90 columns wide and about fifty lines deep so named ranges isn't practicle (I think). I'm running 2003.
I have rows of 10 keywords. I want the macros to compare the first row against all the rows except itself, then compare the second row against all the rows except itself, the third row against all the rows except itself, basically looking for duplicates...It will then record in a column for each respective row, the max # of duplicates found with another row..
For instance lets say I was looking at the 15th row, and it looked for duplicates elsewhere. It only found duplicates in the 4th row and the 5th row. In the fourth row, there were 5 keywords common, and in the 5th row there were 7 keywords common. Therefore the max # of common words is 7 for the 15th row, and that is what is recorded.
In addition the number of rows will probably vary it could range from 1 to 500. I included an excel spreadsheet that has visually speaking how this could work, maybe using COUNTIF. Basically it counts the # of common keywords for one row with all the other rows, pastes the count #s to the right, then finds the max of those count #s, copies the max into another column, then clears the count #s, and looks up the next row, repeats the same process. It is easier probably if you look at the attached spreadsheet to get an idea of what i am talking about..
How do I find the minimum and maximum numbers in a table if I do not know the size of the table but can assume the user will choose the first cell (upper left cell) of the table and run the macro?
I have a column of values the values can be "T", 0.00 ->any number to the nearest hundredth. I thought I had this problems solved a while back but after having time to do some quality control I found that anytime there is a value of "T" the macro does not work. I have had some great help with this in the past to get as far as I have but I still cannot seems to get it 100%. I have attached a sample file. The result that I would like to see is in the cell BH145 is "16,17,23" without the quotes of course.
When you open the worksheet you will see that the values of concern are precipitation values. These values are rounded to nearest hundredth. When there is a trace of precip however it is recorded as "T" therein lies the problem that I cannot seem to solve.
In column A I have a set of Ids that are not unique. In column B I have a set of latlong values for those Ids in column A. In column D I have the unique list of Ids from column A(Removed duplicates from column A & pasted them in column D). In column E, I need the latlong value which has highest frequency for each Id. I tried countif,Frequency and tried mixing them up with various other formulas but it is out of my reach.
I'm developing a spreadsheet for a nonprofit that provides feedback on their major fundraiser/auction. I'm trying to create a formula in a cell that will look at the bidder #'s in column B and add the value of the their purchased items found in column C and return the number of the bidder that has the largest total value of purchases.
This can be done with a pivot table and give a table of all bidders, their total amount paid for items, and the number of items purchased.
Daily At the end of day We receive sales files from our different teams, these files are received at different times due to difference in working shifts. I have collated last one month data and from this data I want to know the earliest and maximum time and date on which we received the files in last month, so that i can fix the receiving time for all regions.
writing a macro to find the max value in each column and delete all the data points that come after it (or preferably: delete all the data points that come 2 rows down after the max, if possible). There will be many columns of data where the max will come at different positions in the column.
Instead of deleting post-max values, it would also be acceptable to just copy values from the beginning to the max to the same column in a new worksheet.
I'm working on a project for my company. We make plastic tanks and for quality control we want to start recording the thickness of the tanks in different areas/zones of each tank.
Attached to this message is an Excel sheet that I've been working on. From "Sheet 1", it records inputted thicknesses into WorkSheet "1098". On the top of "1098", it shows all of the recordings, and just below that are the "10 Most Recent Entries".
Right below the "10 Most Recent Entries", there are formulas to calculate the Min and Max Values. Whenever a new entry is recorded, the selected cells for the Min and Max formulas change. Is there a way to force the cells to always stay the same?
