I like being able to use Excel. =if(isblank(4437puzzle!N14)," ",if(vlookup(4437puzzle!N14,1E63lookup!$A$1:$B$26,55CC2,55CCtrue)="",4437puzzle!N14,vlookup(4437puzzle!N14,1E63lookup!$A$1:$B$26,55CC2,55CCtrue)))
11:16
<~Vorntastic>
Did that come out all super funny colored on your end
11:16
<@Tamber>
lots of 'censored' with blue on blue.

11:18
<@Tamber>
Well, that's... something!
11:19
<@Tamber>
(Every time I've gotten to a problem that I'm supposed to be able to solve with vlookup, I end up just sitting there scratching my head.)
11:24
<~Vorntastic>
(I have a "code crossword" puzzle, a grid of spaces set up like a crossword, each numbered; you associate a letter with each number and fill the grid with words that way.)
11:30
<~Vorntastic>
This thing will grab the cell from puzzle, check if it's blank (and is thus a black cell), and whether I've picked a letter for it, so I can see the puzzle getting filled out as I pick letters
11:38
<~Vorntastic>
I'm surprised by that because vlookup is... Straight up database shit
11:39
<@Tamber>
Dunno if it's just that I've not found a description of how it works/how to use it that really clicks; or if it's that I'm picking the worst times of day (when my brain is in shutdown mode :p) to try work it out.

Vorn: oh hey, you're an Excel wiz.
13:12
<@gnolam>
Right?
13:16
<@gnolam>
I have a table of values:
13:16
<@gnolam>
ID | value1 | value2
13:16
<@gnolam>
The table is sorted by value1.
13:17
<~Vorntastic>
Okay
13:17
<@gnolam>
I'd like to have a chart displaying the top, let's say, 10 entries, and then the rest summarized as "Other".
13:17
<@gnolam>
For value1 this is simple. Just take the first 10 rows and then =SUM() the rest of column B.
13:17
<@gnolam>
For value2... not so much.
13:17
<~Vorntastic>
Mmm. You do have rank as a function
13:17
<@gnolam>
Is there a way to do it, or will I have to create a duplicate table?
13:18
<~Vorntastic>
And... Uh... Inverse rank though I don't remember its name off the top
13:20
<~Vorntastic>
So you should be able to get the top ten via that and subtract it from the full sum to get the other result
13:21
<@gnolam>
Thanks! I'll look into it.
