I'm trying to get the YouTube NOT operator to work via Gnip, but am not having any luck.
I've tried searching for:
("dallas")-("dallas")
... which should be returning zero results, but isntead I get results for "dallas". When I search for ("black") | ("white") -("multiplayer"), I should get a lot of results for Call of Duty Black Opps that don't mention multiplayer, but this is also not the case. Both queries just seem to ignore the NOT operator.
If someone has this working, can they please provide an example snippet.
Thanks
Try getting rid of the parentheses and " characters like:
black | white -multiplayer
After a quick test, it looks like this will give you the right matching.

I have a column that has multiple comma separated values, I need to use Split function and then run index match on that column, is it possible ? if yes somebody can help pls
Yes, you can do this, I just tested it in google sheets.
=INDEX(<array>,MATCH(SPLIT(<cell>,","),<array>,0))
To be honest, I was googling for something similar and ran across this issue. My problem turned out to be that I was using ',' and NOT ",". I suspect you asked this question for similar reasons (you tried it and it didn't work). So just to confirm, it is totally possible, the issue is likely an error with your formula.
output of a minimal example, using the above formula, matching on the first split:
I've got some short html lists where I wont the tags to be removed.
Basiclly I've tried replace any thing in tags <> with nothing.
I've been using REGEXREPLACE and REGEXEXTRACT using the following regular expression: <.+>(.+)</.+> to try and get all that is between but it dosn't work.
the full formula is =join("",REGEXEXTRACT(S74,REGEXREPLACE(S74,"<.+>[(.+)]{2,9}</.+>","($1)")))
and the html looks like this:
PRODUCT INFO Honey wear me long sleeves Press closure Item care: Machine Washable
I've managed to solve it so if anyone comes accrose here's what I did (simpler than I thought)
=REGEXREPLACE(S74,"(<.+>)","")
Hope I helped someone at some time :-)
I write a wrong expression sum(A14+A15:A19). Actually the right way for me is A14+sum(A15:A19). Curiously, the former can run as well with no error. So I spent much time to check the adequate result and find the odd phenomenon.
Besides, when I input the expression in the row 20,21 , error appears. Is that a bug? What's the meaning?
Thanks.
The sum function takes in parameters separated by ,s (not +s).
It's a little counterintuitive, since you're trying to add things together, but instead of =sum(A14+A15:A19) try = sum(A14,A15:A19).
All that being said, I assume there's a reason why you wouldn't simplify the whole thing and use =sum(A14:A19).
I’ve looked through the forum, but haven’t found a solution. I’ve got some survey responses in a table like so:
It’s okay
I don't like school
It’s okay
Good, I like it
I’m using a countif function to count the number of times each response was received in the survey. The thing is my function works well with these values:
I don’t like school
Good, I like it
but my function does not pick up the phrase
It’s okay
As I’m using named ranges, the formula I am using is:
=COUNTIF(Question,"It's okay")
Please see this shared link for the example file and check out sheet 2 for the actual formula.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1e1ccJh3TDeOsIrcn0f5ewQ3M6xOuBrfKBqqJ3mzXfV0
Initially, I thought the issue was that the countif function wasn’t working because of the apostrophe in the word “it’s okay”. As you can see from my example, there are other words with apostrophes in them that get counted so I’m baffled as to why this function is not working for the phrase “it’s okay”.
Has anyone seen this problem before, or any ideas as to how I could accomplish the same thing using another process?
I’ve also tried to escape the apostrophe like so :
=COUNTIF(Question,"It''s okay")
=COUNTIF(Question,"It\'s okay")
But neither case made any difference.
Many thanks in advance
That's because you have different apostrophes in data and in formula:
’ ("Right single quotation mark", ASCII code 146) in data
' ("Single quote", ASCII code 39) in formula
EZ stuff but after an hour.. =filter(May15!A:S , May15!E:E="Authorization") is yielding a rich populated sheet. However I can't get OR working! Despite it working elsewhere in the sheet. I'd like other possibilities via the same filter. I tried several including the OR this way
=filter(May15!A:S , OR(May15!E:E="Authorization" , May15!E:E="bigwhale", May15!E:E="hi"))
.. to no avail. Any help appreciated. Also, I read somewhere the OR could be accessed using a "+" and that sounded like a neat method.. Thanks!
One possible way is to use RegEx:
=filter(H:H , REGEXMATCH(E:E,JOIN("|",A1:A3)))
put in A1:A3:
Authorization
bigwhale
hi
This trick is useful when you need to add conditions, just paste one more value in cell A4 and use range A1:A4
Another way is to use plus sign:
=FILTER(H:H,(E:E="Authorization")+(E:E="bigwhale")+(E:E="hi"))
