I'm trying to get the centroid's X and Y values from the Results table, but I can't use getResult() with anything but "Area". All other columns (which are regularly displayed on the table) return NaN.
I'm not using any special plugin, the table is created using "Analyze Particles..."
Any idea what could be causing this?
getResult("Area", 0) works.
getResult("X", 0) does not work. (Returns NaN)
I guess I figured it out. There was a run("Clear Results...") line before this loop, and even though it worked well to remove some partial results (scaling), it also bugged the Results columns names for some reason. I replaced it with IJ.deleteRows(0, 1), because there were two measurements regarding the two points used as scale references.

I have a long list of values in a row that I need to perform several functions/vlookups on, multiply them all together and then sum all the final values. There are over 50 different values in a row so I'm trying to come up with a way to do this without manually typing out vlookups for each column.
Here is the formula I put together, however it seems to not be returning the correct value:
=sum(arrayformula(vlookup(offset($A$1,0,{9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,51,52,53,54}),Input!$E:$F,2,FALSE)
*offset(indirect("$A"&ROW()),0,{9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,51,52,53,54})))

It's as if it's doing what I want for some of the values, but not summing them all. Debugging this is an absolute pain, so I'm wondering if I'm even going about this in the right way.
Is there a better way to go about this? I'm wondering if the problem is that I've got two sets of arrays embedded in this function.
I'm having some trouble getting these functions to work. I'm not even sure if they're the ones that I should be using, but here is the following information I can provide. I had previously opened a topic, but I was getting responses about my confusing query. So, hopefully this one is better explained.
I have data in the following fields: A1:N7, as well as A12:L18.
I need a function to check all of the fields and add up the amount of times certain numbers show up. The numbers that need to be checked are: <90, 90-99.99, 100-109.99, and =>100.
First off, I can use this formula to count the <90 and =>100 values in all the fields, which works.
=COUNTIFS(A1:N7,"<90")
However, I'm unsure how to appropriately add the results from A12:L18 into it. My attempts have failed. Likewise, for the ranged functions, I'm completely lost. I've tried something like this:
=COUNT(FILTER(A1:N7,A1:N7>=90,A1:N7<=99.99))
Yet, this always returns 0 as the result. In addition, like the above formula I don't know how I'd nest in a way to check the additional fields in A12:L18.
An old thread, but I came across it trying to solve a similar problem.
Using the original example:
=COUNT(FILTER(A1:N7,A1:N7>=90,A1:N7<=99.99))
I was also getting zero until I realised COUNT returns the number of NUMERIC values in the range. Assuming the result range isn't numeric, I tried:
=COUNTA(FILTER(A1:N7,A1:N7>=90,A1:N7<=99.99))
and got the result I was expecting.
You just need count rows your matrix with ROWS()
=ROWS(FILTER(...))
Does this formula work as you want:
={"<90",COUNTIF({A1:N7;A12:N18},"<90");"90-99.99",COUNTIFS({A1:N7;A12:N18},">=90",{A1:N7;A12:N18},"<100");"100-109.99",COUNTIFS({A1:N7;A12:N18},">=100",{A1:N7;A12:N18},"<110");"=>110",COUNTIF({A1:N7;A12:N18},">=110")}
I made an example sheet where you can see it working: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BPexh5syksapZ9rd_brAa3NkN28LXAvB6dVMLEkM2r0/edit#gid=0
Ive been working on a spreadsheet to examine something. I was converting a recursive formula into a linear one. The initial value or first state was 60. To get to the second state you 240. This is done by taking the previous state, doubling it, and adding 120. Which leads to the 3rd and 4th states of 600 and 1320. Now this base formula was clear enough that the (60+120)*2^(n-1)-120 accurately expresses it.
My second part comes from needing to add in the ability to decrease the costs while still staying true to the state. So the last formula only works when the cost reduction is 0. After considerable effort (I kept having minor rounding errors) I arrived at (ROUND(60-60*0.015*B$2)+(120-round(120*rounddown(B$2/3)*0.03,0)))*2^($A2-1)-(120-round(120*rounddown(B$2/3)*0.03,0)).
To test the formulas I created a table with the following values, with a2=1 to a5=4, and b2=0 to h2=6. Now I was using google spreadsheets to examine the information. When I populate the table I found that all the values were correct with the formula, except on G. On G the values are identical to F.
So to try and correct this I have deleted the information from the cells, deleted the columns, and even tried again in a new spreadsheet. But in all cases G=F when it should not. I cant figure out why I'm getting a duplicate column.
The information on row 3 is the values that it should be using.
The expected values are G4=55, G5=226, G6=568, G7=1252.
In case anyone wanted to know, I finally managed to solve the issue. I needed to round in one more place. The following is the formula that has worked for my current testing.
sum((ROUND(60-round(60*0.015*A$2))+(120-round(120*rounddown(A$2/3)*0.03,0)))*2^($A25-1)-(120-round(120*rounddown(A$2/3)*0.03,0)))
I have a column of numbers. I want to know if there are any duplicates. I don't need to know how many or what their value is. I just want to know if there are any.
The best way I could figure out was to have another column of equal height to the column of numbers, with the formula:
=countif(A:A,A1)>1
So this will put a TRUE next to every number that has one or more duplicates in the list.
From here I need to see if this second column contains a TRUE.
So I have a final cell with this formula in it:
=lookup(true, B:B)
This always displays FALSE, even when there are duplicates in the list, with corresponding "TRUE" values next to them in column B.
Also, is there a simpler way of solving this problem?
Note: I can get it to work if the single cell result simply does an =OR(B:B) but I still want to know why my first way won't work and if there is an all around simpler way of doing this.
you can use both =unique(A:A) and also =counta(unique(A:A))
note: the A:A is just a dummy array i threw in for example, replace with whatever column you want to refer to.
to get a final yes or no, you could nest it together by putting =if(eq(counta(A:A),counta(unique(A:A))),"No Duplicates", "Contains Duplicates")
I'm not sure whether simpler (I am confident the formula could be simplified!) but copy/pasting the following might be deemed so:
=sum(if(ARRAYFORMULA(countif(A:A,A1:A)>1),1,0))
This should return 0 only if there are no duplicates. If a single entry is repeated twice (three instances) and all other values are unique, the result should be 3.
TRUE is curious as the behaviour is not what I expected and I differs from Excel where true would be converted to TRUE, which normally indicates an automatic change from text to function. I don't have an explanation but it may be connected with lookup because the boolean behaves as I would expect in say an if formula.
I have my VLOOKUP with ArrayFormula working thanks to Adam's (AD:AM) brilliantly spelled-out solution (https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!searchin/docs/parallel$20lookup$20solution/docs/36A0epDlIdE/qnywZst0DioJ)
So in col J this is what I have:
=ArrayFormula(VLOOKUP(H2:H;ProductTable!A2:C;3*SIGN(ROW(H2:H));FALSE))
Works great. However, I would like to then take the returned value(s) from that formula in col J and multiply it against the Qty value(s) that are in row I.
Obviously I could add an extra helper column in col K...
=ARRAYFORMULA(I2:I*J2:J)
...but I was hoping to avoid adding yet another column to my Query results, especially since the returned results in col J have no visible purpose on the worksheet - they are meant to be used strictly for mathematical purposes only.
I've attempted multiple ways of slipping that formula into the ArrayFormula / VLOOKUP function in col J, but I've had no luck thus far.
Maybe it can't be done(?), or maybe I could just benefit from a fresh set of eyes looking at this issue.
Never mind. I'm not sure why this didn't appear to work when I had tried it before, but out of desperation I just walked away for a while, and then just re-tried everything again.
And this time I get the results that I was looking for:
=ArrayFormula(VLOOKUP(H2:H;Backend_Product!A2:C;3*SIGN( ROW(G2:G));FALSE )*I2:I)
(a bit of a DUH, so maybe I had originally referenced the wrong column or something)
The post you referenced is from 2011. I think that use case has been resolved since then.
I have a column using the formula =ArrayFormula(VLOOKUP(J$2:J,$C$2:$D,2,FALSE)). I created a check column with =VLOOKUP(J2,$C$2:$D,2,FALSE) which I dragged down a number of rows.
It appears that, in the array formula, J is being iterated just as it is in my dragged formula, while C:D are fixed. Both the original column and check column have the same result data so far as I've dragged the check column down.
Caveat: I did not do an exhaustive search or create a particularly clever test case. I just eyeballed a good heaping of rows of actual data.
