Formula For Counting Sequences
Apr 1, 2007
I want to write a formula that counts sequences.
Details of Data:
Imagine you roll a 4-sided dice! The four sides of the dice are 1,2,3 and 0.
Sequence needs to be 5 in a row of either 1 and 2, 1 and 3 or 2 and 3. The 0 is to be recorded, but 'skipped over' in the sequence.
When a sequence of 5 occurs, there needs to be a count to record how many more times the missing number takes until it arrives. For example, if the sequence of 5 is 1 and 2, and the count will be to see how long it takes the number 3 to arrive.

I have the following two formula's:
=IFERROR(IF(X12="",X13&" "&MATCH(FALSE,INDEX(X13=X13:X1000,0),0)-1,X12&" "&MATCH(FALSE,INDEX(X12=X12:X1000,0),0)-1),"")
=MAX(FREQUENCY(IF(INDEX(X:X,12):INDEX(X:X,1000)="WON",ROW(INDEX(X:X,12):INDEX(X:X,1000))),IF(INDEX(X:X,12):INDEX(X:X,1000)="LOST",ROW(INDEX(X:X,12):INDEX(X:X,100)))))
The first shows the current sequence of events (WON or LOST) and the second the best sequence achieved.
They work fine but I would like to modify them to only use the data, if "P" is in column D of that row.

I am using excel 2007 and I need help with the following if anyone would be kind enough. I have a dynamic array that consists of stream of 1's and 0's. I want to be able to find the largest sequence of 1's and the smallest sequence of 1's. So at a point in time the array mite be 111110001101111000 and I want to be able to dertermine the longest contiguous sequence of 1's. But as I say the array is dynamic and so I need to do that after each input.

I need to create a warning when specific values sequences are input from a
drop down menu. My example:
I have 31 columns (days in month) and have 25 rows (peoples names) from the
drop down box I have the following values-These are shift designations
(V1,V2,V3,V4, SV1,SV2,SV3,SV4, A1,A2,A3,A4,N,R1,R2,R3,DB,C).
If the selections in cell between B1:AF25 are either SV 1-4 or A 1-4 I want
a warning to appear IF a value of V 1-4, R 1-3, DB or C are attempted to be
put in the immediately following cell.
Example: Cell B3 has A-4 and in cel C3 they attempt to put N, then it
should give a warning "This is not a recommended shift sequence".

I have 70 sequences of binary coded variables each, which I would like to compare in terms of overlaps for the number "1", e.g.,
a1 1 0 0 0 0 1
a2 0 1 1 1 0 0
a3 0 1 1 0 1 0
.
.
.
a70 0 1 0 0 0 0
How can I do a pairwise comparison in Excel for the number "1" (ie how often does the number "1" occur at the same place for two sequences?).
I thought about a correlation matrix (that compares sequences a1-> a2, a1-> a3, a1->a4, ...., a1-> a70; a2->a3, a2-> a4, ...., a2-> a70; .....; a69-> a70), but am looking for an easy way to compute this in Excel.

I need to come up with a formula that will lookup a value in a table based upon a specified number sequence in another table and then add that value to another number/price that corresponds with that specified number sequence.
In the attached worksheet you will see that there are two groups of tables (A & B). I want to take the prices in group A in columns B:E and then add the values at the top of the page in columns G:J based upon specific numbers to the right of the decimal place in column A under "Rate".
So in the example at the bottom you will see that the first rate in column A is 5.125. Since the rate ends in .125 then it should be using the value of 2.57 from J2. So it should take the price in B27 (108.328) and add 2.57 to give you 110.898 in M27.
My problem is that the rate sequence wont always be the same and neither will the values in columns G:J. The only constants are that the rates will end in 1/8ths and the values will be based upon which 1/8ths they end in. For instance; In the example the rate range goes from 5.125 down to 3.75 but sometimes it may be 5.625 down to 4.25.

how to go about finding sequences and highlighting them.
here's an example list:
7600
7601
7602
7603
7604
7608
7609
7610
7611
now i need to find 3 things in this list.
1) how many 'batches' of sequences there are in this list. The numbers 7600 to 7604 are a consecutive sequence of five numbers followed by another sequence from 7608 to 7611. that makes two sequences. i need a formula for one cell that would specify how many sequences there are in a given list (in this case they're two sequences in this list).
2) is there any formula that can allow me to see each sequence highlighted in a different color (or any way to differentiate the sequences so i can copy paste them easily?). Pretty sure i'd have to use conditional formating on the entire list to do so but am clueless as to the implementation.
3) a formula for a single cell that can state the largest sequence in the list. in the list above the largest seuqnce is 5 numbers so that would be the value i'm looking for.

Worksheet cells A1 – A25 have sequential numbers 1 – 24
the following elegant code generates every permutation of six numbers from the list into Cols C – H
VB:
Option Explicit
Sub Combinations()
Dim rRng As Range, p

I have a spreadsheet tool that I use to calculate values on a set of variables, based on values on an initial set of other variables, for a large number of cases.
The calculations require a number of sequential steps to be repeated to get the calculated values for each case, and I am hoping there is a straightforward way to use a VB macro to automate this process.
Essentially, these steps are required to calculate values for a single case:
1. A data input sheet holds the values on the initial/input variables for each case. The first step involves copying the string of values for the case on the input variables into a sheet where the calculations are done.
2. As soon as the input string of values are pasted into the calculation sheet, the calculation formulas generate values for the case on the new, output variables.
3. The output variable string is then copied from the calculation sheet into a “results output” sheet. This copy/paste procedure needs to offset from the first row on the output sheet, so that the row number where the values on the output variables are stored correspond to the case ID. For example, case ID 10 is stored 10 rows down from the first row (i.e., on row 11). Case ID 100 is stored 100 rows down from the first row (i.e., on row 101).
As there are a very large number of cases, I need to have a “control panel” in place, where I can indicate the range of case IDs that will be processed. This takes the form of two cells – one indicates “From ID” and the other “To ID” (for example, “From ID” 1 “To ID” 100). The macro then uses this information to loop through the calculation steps outlined above for these case IDs.

How do I get cell C4 to give me a total of the times a score in column C is > than opposing score next to it in coumn D? Also, a total in cell D4 to show the number of times this team's score was less than the opposing score in column C. This would be for a running Win/Loss record.

I need to count how often a formula is true over 2 columns and have that total in a 3rd column. Here's my problem:
A B
3 2
4 5
2 1
1 6
4 5
Every time A is greater than its corresponding B, i need to count 1 and have the total show up in a certain cell on my spreadsheet. I can't seem to get the A>B portion into my formula and have it hold true down the entire column and count it all up in 1 cell.

I have the following formula
=IF(B8>='Credit Details'!$C$12,IF(SUM($D$8:D8)>=$I$2,"TRUE","FALSE"),"FALSE")
What this does is the date in referenece 'Credit Details'!$C$12
Is equal or greater then Reference B8 then complete the main formula
(SUM($D$8:D8)>=$I$2,"TRUE","FALSE")
But the problem being the formula always counts from D8 but I need it
to start counting from what the date is B is => then 'Credit Details'!$C$12
Is there anything you can think of?
Example, if I want the formula to count all the numbers in row D after the date is above 01/11/06 and the date is in row B. Before I counted $D$8:D8 so every time the formula repeating it always started from D8
But the date might not go above 01/11/06 til cell D20 but changes each time

I am trying to figure out a formula that will simply just count up the rows remaining in my spreadsheet after a filter. For example, I have a spreadsheet with 1,000 rows in it, and I filter out one section, the numbering does not adjust and I now don't know how many rows are showing.

I am trying to creat a summary sheet to an attendance log that goes back several years. Idealy, I want to be able to set a date range in the formula that will show me a count of how many absenses, lates, or leave earlies. The table I am taking the data from has columns from left to right (Date, Absense, # of Absenses, Late, Duration of, Left Early, Duration of, and MP) For example in column A I want to see the date Range of 10/1/2013 to 4/1/2014 and I want a count/sum of each of the categories.

i have a spreadsheet that acquires data from 42 other worksheet and in a row of cells it has yes or no at the bottom of that row i have =COUNTIF(A2:A34,"YES"). But it will not count the yes' because the cells that it is trying to count all have formulas in them like =tues!A34 or similar is there a different formula i can use to still count the yes' even in a cell containing a formula?

Is there any formula that will count the space of a cell. For Example. If I type Mr. Ashish Patel in a cell the formula should give me count as 2 as there are 2 spaces in this name One after Mr. and another after Ashish.

I have a spreadsheet which matches Reference numbers in Column A against Column B and vice versa; and assigns unique or duplicate values. I would like to be able to count the number of duplicates and uniques giving a total of how many appear in the spreadsheet. I've attached the spreadsheet to give you an idea of what its like.

I have a column with dates in it. Example "04/04/2007" don't know if format will matter that is why I am showning an example.
I need a formula that looks at that column and tells me how many days were entered for a month. I thought a pivot table would work well but the same date could be entered many times and that would skew the number of days counted. The final result is a table that had each month with the number of days entered. Keep in mind that I only want each day counted once even though it may have been entered 5 times.

In cells v43:v52 I have data which will change often the data is always either a 1,-1 or a 0, I need a way to count from the bottom up and ignore anything that is not part of the chain. It can also contain 0 in rows that are not populated yet but the 0s will always be on the bottom and never in the middle or top.
I.E. in 3 weeks it could be
1
1
1
0
0
0
0
0
0
0
0
0
I would want the formula to spit out 3 because it was 1 3 times in a row..
Now say in week 5 it is
1
1
1..............................

know if there is a formula for counting back a year from a date?
Basically what I have is we operate a rolling absence/ sick year and so what happens is on a staff members return from absence/ sick we look back exactly one calendar year from the last day of absence and count the number of days off absent in that period for comparison against their paid allowance.
I have posted a mock up sheet and what I am looking for is a formula for column C. The highlighted cells are the period it would be if today was the last day of absence.
