I am wondering if there has been something made that is able to measure the distance between 2 cells if there is a barrier between them. For example, say you want to measure the distance between A1 and C1. If there were no barriers, the answer would be 2 cells, but say there was a barrier (a wall) that ran from B1 to B3. The distance would now be 8 assuming you cannot move diagonally, or 6 if you can move diagonally.
View 6 RepliesI have created a sheet that shows distance between coordinates. Also working on something to put them in order of the closest point. I used a fixed point to find the nearest coordinate, but since i'm using a fixed point it doesnt go the order I want it to. I have attached the excel file I am working on.
View 11 Replies View RelatedI have two columns, zipA and zipB. There are over 7000 rows and I need to calculate the distance between zipA and zipB for each row (so the result should be over 7000 rows of distances (in miles)). I posted this in the programming board because I figured it would require some. I don't have any add-ons.

View 2 Replies View RelatedAt my last job we purchased a zip code addin from spheresoft that could give you a distance between two distance ie: =ZipCodeDistance(zip1, zip2)
This worked well but I am now at a new job and wondering if there is any data out there that could help me build my own sheet. I just need California
I have both zip codes now just need the distance, I could sit down, drink a ton of coffee and enter zip codes all night into Mapquest but am hoping for a better way.
I need a formula, from which I need to drag (if needed) and to fill with numbers, by following principles:
- when the left cell contain the zero, it needs to find on the same column if there exists another zero, or another one and count them, let's say if find three zeros untill find number one, return 3.
- when find a number 1, after another 1, has to return a zero.
- the formula need to initialise from the top of the column, only finds the first number 1.
I have a relevant example down bellow. I used to count them visually and sometimes errors sneak into my spreadsheets.
I am looking to calculate the distance around an arc, given A-B = 70 and the depth is 70cm.
View 10 Replies View RelatedI have a distance grid with place names down column A and along Row 1 with distances in the middle. I then have a place name in cell A1 on sheet2 and a distance in cell B1 on sheet2. Ideally I want cell C1 on sheet2 to lookup the place in cell A1 on Row1 of the grid on sheet1 and then find the distance in B2 in that column before displaying the correspoding value from Column A on sheet2. I've tried various Match and Index functions with no success.

If i visit customer 1, 2 and 5 in one day, which distance is smaller? 1-2, 2-5 ou 1-5 and what is the corresponding value?
I have in columns DATE, CUSTOMER 1, CUSTOMER 2, ..., CUSTOMER 5 and in each row I put the Day and 1 or blank for each customer (visited / not visited). I also have a mileage chart for each customer in another sheet which is the source for my distance data.
I tried INDEX and MATCH but all I get is ZERO... I think it is comparing the same CUSTOMER.

i use a Trimble Total Station Survey equipment, This is used for suveying and measuring distances between points on jobs. These points can be exported onto the pc as a text file and imported onto excel, the file has a northing and easting to locate the point these are comma separated.
I would like to know if excell is capable of working out a distance betwen two of these such points by using the two pairs of northing and easting coordinates. The maximum distance between two points is no more than 50 meters. If for example when imported onto excel point 1's coordinates are locted in cells A1 and B1 and points 2's coordinates are locted in cells A2 and B2.

I have a list of 206 ports. I want to build a matrix of Port distances with the names of the ports (206 names) on the first row and column and the distance from each port to every other port. I understand that the 1551 rows of data that I have is not sufficient, but those are he only significant ones. For the missing records I would like to put "zero" in the matrix.
Also, Once the matrix is built, how can I use it to find the port pair distance when the user inputs two port (From port and To port)?
I have a list of 3D landmarks, and I'm trying to calculate angles and distances between specific combinations of these points.I hit a complete wall when trying to use excel to calculate out those equations. way input these equations?
Distance equation --> distance between points A and B = sqr root of [(Ax-Bx)^2 + (Ay-By)^2 + (Az-Bz)^2]
This person (see the link) posted the excel equation, and I spent a long time trying to follow it, but can't make sense of it! [URL]
I have attached a summary of the excel I have, and exactly what I'm trying to calculate.
Summary:
1. What is the excel equation to calculate the distance between two 3D coordinates (x,y,z)?
2. What is the excel equation to calculate the angle formed by 3 3D points (again, with x,y,z coordinates)?
this is normally a very simple thing to calculate and I know how to calculate for speed, distance and time or SoDiT as we learnt at school..
I have a period of time where a distance in feet is covered. Lets say 1 hour 25 minutes to cover 12,600 feet, just over two miles.
What I need to solve for in this case is not speed exactly, but how long it takes to cover 10 feet in this scenario.
I start to do the math in excel and then the formatting jumps when I set to hh:mm:ss and I get confused whether I'm multiplying or dividing by 60 and it all becomes a mess.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a multivariate dataset with a large number of cases. eg. 50.000 cases (data points) and 40 variables. I need to calculate the distances between each pair of data points in this 40-dimensional space. Obviously i cannot produce a whole data matrix, which would have to be 50.000 x 50.000 big. but i need at least the average distance - if N is the number of cases there are (N*N-N)/2 possible pairs of points. Idealy, the (N*N-N)/2 distances could be placed in a column so i could make a histogram of the values. Still this doesn't seem like a very good solution as the (N*N-N)/2 distances if N=50.000 would fill about 75 worksheets!

Havent used a spreadsheet in ages and i'm having a fun time here. Cant seem to get the right formula for what i need. Here is a brief explanation!
I have a grid (not related to excel) of 999 by 999 squares.
The center is basically co-ords 500|500.
Upper left would of course be co-ords 001|001
Upper right would be 999|001
Bottom left would be 001|999
Bottom right would be 999|999
Now, here is what I am trying to do:
I want to have 3 squares chosen out on a spreadsheet I have made . .
1) here i put in the start co-ords (ie: 500|500)
2) here i put in the destination co-ords (ie: 505|510)
3) This is the fun one!!! ... And where I need the help!
I need a formula to put here that will tell me the number of squares I have to cross to get from one to the other!
I have a list of postcodes. Half of them belong to girls, and half of them belong to guys. I have the distances between each postcode in a matrix. I need to put these postcodes into groups of 6, where 3 of the postcodes belong to girls and 3 to guys, in a way that minimises the sum distance between all the houses in every group. I want each group to contain houses that are as close together as possible.

*ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXY11458912131415192122232728293234363741444548492314
The table above has numbers from A1:Y1. The blue number is the target number, which is selected in cell H3. I want selected numbers from the target number H1 going along each 3 numbers on the right to get the number 22 which is after the 3rd distance. For example the number would be 22, 29, 37 and 48, which are all in red. After the number 48 it should start counting from the beginning and reach to the target point H1. In this way it will select 5 and 13 also. In total it would be 6 numbers selected. The target point can be selected from A1:Y1 but in this example case is H1.
The table below shows the final 6 numbers, which are obtained after the results along each 3rd distance numbers.

I need to dispatch 10 technicians across the US starting each Monday. They go to 10 different customers for the whole week. I know the distance between each technician and each customer. What I would like to do is assign each technician to a customer so that the total distance traveled for all the technicians is minimized. I know that if it was only 3 techs and 3 customers (as an example), I could build a table of all the possible combinations (3 factorial or 6 permutations), determine the distance for each permutation and select the minimum. I'm not sure that doing this method with 10 techs is feasible as the number of permutations is 10 factorial or over 3 million possibilities. Anyone see a workable solution?
I've include a spreadsheet with customers, technicians and the distances between them!

However, the division part only works in the first cell in the column correctly and then does not work in the rest of the column cells correctly. The difference in the code is that the first cell has no "$" in it and the rest of the cells in the column have the "$" in them.
