I am compiling odds for football matches using the last 16 match outcome data for each team. Basically I need a solution or formula that counts the number of home wins, away wins and draws for each team in the last 16. This would basically mean allowing for the latest match outcome added into and then eliminating the 17th match back so that formulas from the last 16 matches only are always calculated. I envisage having a the data in a row of of 16 columns for each eam.
I found a reference on Ozgrid.com that allows me to sum values located every 2 columns. My need now is to confirm how to do that for even and odd columns:
Create a random selection based on odds. It would be similar to the RANDBETWEEN function, but in this case I specifically want one of the three values to be selected randomly in cell C2 based on the odds given.
When exporting a set of historical sports results to Excel 2003 the numeric odds are converted to a date eg 7/2 changes to 07-Feb. Can this be prevented or adjusted to retain the original data.
Also if I may ask can the UK style odds be converted to a decimal style. Eg. 7/2 (UK) needs to be converted to 4.5 ( Decimal equivalent )
I would like to randomly pick a name based on percentage. In the example below Deb takes up 50% of the wheel, if you were to spin the wheel she would have the highest chance of landing on the dial. How you could make excel randomly pick a name based these odds. The list will have over 50 names and each name will be earning points throughout the year. The more points you have the higher percentage of the pie you get and the higher your odds off getting picked in the lottery.
I have a line graph which I use in conjunction with live horseracing odds. On the vertical axis are the odds which are sourced from a worksheet. Each horse is represented by a data series that moves along the horizontal axis. The refresh rate is determined by the user embedded in the code.
I would like to expand the length of each data change along the horizontal axis as the data can be volatile. Sometimes there are rapid changes on the vertical axis which makes it difficult to interpret. With each refresh the line data moves about 3mm. It would be much better if it were about 5mm, especially as I now use a widescreen display.
There are no values on the horizontal axis as such, only time is suppose set by Excel?
I created a automated football league with 5 teams in it that updated the team positions (moved them up and down)as the new data was added in the secondary table and i used this type of formula in the secondary table on a rank system to rank positions according to points/wins/goal/difference/ect this also places the appropriate teams in alphabetical order in case the teams have equal stats
and this formula in the primary table that updates its self
=SMALL($A$4:$A$13,1) in the ranking
and this type of formula to transfer the data to the appropriate destination from the secondary table to the self adjusting primary table ie points/ goals/ect
=INDEX($A$4:$O$13,MATCH($A22,$A$4:$A$13,0),4)
my question is i now want to extend my table to 24 teams so can i still use this ranking system as the range of 10/10000 only seems to let me use 10 teams( not tested yet)not sure how it works
i m just trying to create a football calculator, just a real basic one, my excel is ok. Just doin it for a mate as he is arranging some charity football event. i have inputted the teams and that and worked out goal differences but would like to calculate games played, wins losses draws and points, can someone advise or quicky have a look, see attachment.
I'm having trouble writing a forumla that will grab a second player from a list.
For example, there are 3 possible QB spots. I need a formula that will grab the 1st QB, the second QB if a 1st has already been selected and a 3rd if a 2nd has already been selected. This is what I have but it's not working right.
I do a football prediction competition at work and need help or the formula to calculate peoples scores.
The scoring works like this
10 points for a completely correct result and score for both teamse.g. 1-0 prediction and 1-0 result 7 points for a correct result but a correct score for only 1 teame.g. 1-0 prediction and 2-0 result 5 points for a correct result but no correct score for either teame.g. 1-0 prediction and 2-1 result 2 points for an incorrect result but a correct score for 1 teame.g. 1-0 prediction and 1-2 result
I have basic Excel knowledge but have no idea how to create a formula which will calculate the above and populate the correct scores for people in the spreadsheet.
I have a football pool I am doing with my family. I would like a macro that displays a message box that tells me the leaders of the pool using the grand total number. So in my attachment, the message box would say something like:
Sue is in first place with 12 points, Bob and Dave are in second place with 9 points, Larry is in third place with 3 points
It doesn't need to be exactly like that, but you get the gist of what I am looking for. The catch here is that the grand total row changes each week as I add games in, so the row moves down every week. I need the macro to stay with the grand total row from week to week.
An example will be as follows. List all possible outcomes for 3 matches. That will be 27 possible outcomes.
I would like results for my request of 50 matches to be displayed as follows.
HHH HHD HHA HDH HDD HDA
[Code] ...........
Where: H=HOME D=DRAW A=AWAY
Is there a way i can have the possible outcomes listed as above for the outcomes of 50 football matches? I do know that the outcomes will be hundreds of millions if not billions.
A pal at work runs a football predictions spreadsheet but due to a recent surge in numbers, it is taking longer to adminster each week.
Basically, you get 3pts for a spot on home score, 4pts for a spot on draw, 5pts for a spot on away win and only 1pt if you get a correct result but not the actual scoreline, with no points being scored for being completely wrong.
At the moment, he manually inputs 0,1,3,4 or 5 pts each Monday, of course this is open to human error. Is there a way of getting excel to calculate this for him once he inputs the correct score in the first column?
http://www.excelforum.com/excel-gene...cognition.html and im copying and pasting data from a website ( football scores ) and when i get what should be 1-1 it returns 01-jan and this i dont want i have tried formatting all cells to text beforehand but that makes no difference and i cant put an apostrophe before each one as that would take ages wondered if anyone could work out some syntax to use as a macro button? claymation had a go but it doesnt work.
I'm creating an (English) football predictions competition for me and my family.
One problem that has stumped me is how to get the scores based on the 'home' & 'away' score predictions.
The rules are: If I predict the correct exact result I get 3 points. I want to add another 'rule' whereby if I predict the correct winner, I get 1 point. Incorrect predictions get 0 points. I don't know how to do this using a formula.
