I have a good sheet that I want to grab the header which a date time stamp which will match against another sheet find the entries with that date and suburb and type and give me an average cost.
My formula is =AVERAGEIFS(Sheet1!C:C,Sheet1!A:A, B11:B, Sheet1!F:F, C10) which gives me the average but i've hard coded the header date:
example:
What I want to do is dynamically add the data from the row above with the date time instead of of manually adding it in the formula something like this:
=AVERAGEIFS(Sheet1!C:C,Sheet1!A:A, B11:B, Sheet1!F:F, =CHAR(COLUMN()+64) & 10)
Which would automatically grab the column + row 10 e.g C10, D10, E10.
If i put =CHAR(COLUMN()+64) & 10 in its own cell it works but when I add it to averageifs condition it gives me a parsing error.
Expecting C10, D10, E10 from =CHAR(COLUMN()+64) & 10 which should allow me to dynamically filter data on the date int he header above it.
try:
=AVERAGEIFS(Sheet1!C:C, Sheet1!A:A, B11:B, Sheet1!F:F, INDIRECT(CHAR(COLUMN()+64)&10))
I need help with Google spreadsheet checkmark conditional formatting. Please see the image for a better understanding. When I click on the C2 cells checkmark then automatically A2 cells $10 will be selected and added to the E5 cells. When I click on the B6 checkmark then automatically A6 cells $40 will be selected and added to the E5 cells. Summary of the concept: When I checkmark any cells (from B2 to B9 & C2 to C9) the same row (From A column) number will be added automatically to the specific cells(to E5 cells). How do I do it?
Sheet Link (I have given edit permission, you can edit it) - Go to sheet link
try:
=INDEX(SUM(IF(B2:C9=TRUE, A2:A9, 0)))
or:
=INDEX(SUM(IF((B2:B9=TRUE)+(C2:C9=TRUE), A2:A9, 0)))
or try:
=SUMPRODUCT((B2:B9=TRUE)*(C2:C9=TRUE)*A2:A9)
=SUMPRODUCT(((B2:B9=TRUE)+(C2:C9=TRUE))*A2:A9)
Try below formula-
=QUERY(A2:C9,"select sum(A) where B=True or C=True label sum(A) ''")
For my data project, column A is Name of "number-text".
Google Sheets can automatically create "text-number" by dragging.
ABC - 01
ABC - 02
ABC - 03
But it doesn’t work when I use: "number - text" .
Example:
01 - ABC
02 - ABC
03 - ABC
How can I create a serial number and text in Google Sheets by dragging or another better solution (arrayformula)?
If you really wish for a dragging solution, you can try:
=TEXT(ROW(A1), "00")&" - ABC"
Though, the proper way would be to use arrayformula bound to another column, like:
=ARRAYFORMULA(IF(B2:B="",,TEXT(COUNTIFS(B2:B, "<>",
ROW(B2:B), "<="&ROW(B2:B)), "00")&" - ABC"))
I have 2 sheets the first one is Orders and second one is the ShippingDoc.
At Shipping doc, I have Cell C2. In that cell I choose/write ID from range of A7:A from Orders.
Is there a way if I choose example ID 1 at C2 then automatically A7 at Orders to change background to green. Also if I change the ID to 2 the A8 to be green and to not delete the A7 color.
There is a better way of achieving this using Apps Script. Go to tools->Script editor and there use the following code (explained on the comments in the code):
// Update everytime the value on C2 changes
function onEdit() {
var spreadsheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActive();
// Get C2 value
var C2value = spreadsheet.getSheetByName("ShippingDoc").getRange('C2').getValue();
// If input value is higher than 0
if(C2value>0){
// Ofset to set the background after A7
var number = C2value+6;
// Set background color of appropiate cell
spreadsheet.getSheetByName("Orders").getRange('A'+number+'').setBackground('green');
}
}

I hope this has helped you. Let me know if you need anything or if you did not understand something.
try:
=(REGEXMATCH(""&INDIRECT("ShippingDoc!C2"), ""&A1))*(A1<>"")
This question already has answers here:
Using Regex to generate Strings rather than match them
(12 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
I would like to know if there is software that, given a regex and of course some other constraints like length, produces random text that always matches the given regex.
Thanks
Yes, software that can generate a random match to a regex:
Exrex, Python
Pxeger, Javascript
regex-genex, Haskell
Xeger, Java
Xeger, Python
Generex, Java
rxrdg, C#
String::Random, Perl
regldg, C
paggern, PHP
ReverseRegex, PHP
randexp.js, Javascript
EGRET, Python/C++
MutRex, Java
Fare, C#
rstr, Python
randexp, Ruby
goregen, Go
bfgex, Java
regexgen, Javascript
strgen, Python
random-string, Java
regexp-unfolder, Clojure
string-random, Haskell
rxrdg, C#
Regexp::Genex, Perl
StringGenerator, Python
strrand, Go
regen, Go
Rex, C#
regexp-examples, Ruby
genex.js, JavaScript
genex, Go
Xeger is capable of doing it:
String regex = "[ab]{4,6}c";
Xeger generator = new Xeger(regex);
String result = generator.generate();
assert result.matches(regex);
All regular expressions can be expressed as context free grammars. And there is a nice algorithm already worked out for producing random sentences, from any CFG, of a given length. So upconvert the regex to a cfg, apply the algorithm, and wham, you're done.
If you want a Javascript solution, try randexp.js.
Check out the RandExp Ruby gem. It does what you want, though only in a limited fashion. (It won't work with every possible regexp, only regexps which meet some restrictions.)
Too late but it could help newcomer , here is a useful java library that provide many features for using regex to generate String (random generation ,generate String based on it's index, generate all String..) check it out here .
Example :
Generex generex = new Generex("[0-3]([a-c]|[e-g]{1,2})");
// generate the second String in lexicographical order that match the given Regex.
String secondString = generex.getMatchedString(2);
System.out.println(secondString);// it print '0b'
// Generate all String that matches the given Regex.
List<String> matchedStrs = generex.getAllMatchedStrings();
// Using Generex iterator
Iterator iterator = generex.iterator();
while (iterator.hasNext()) {
System.out.print(iterator.next() + " ");
}
// it print 0a 0b 0c 0e 0ee 0e 0e 0f 0fe 0f 0f 0g 0ge 0g 0g 1a 1b 1c 1e
// 1ee 1e 1e 1f 1fe 1f 1f 1g 1ge 1g 1g 2a 2b 2c 2e 2ee 2e 2e 2f 2fe 2f 2f 2g
// 2ge 2g 2g 3a 3b 3c 3e 3ee 3e 3e 3f 3fe 3f 3f 3g 3ge 3g 3g 1ee
// Generate random String
String randomStr = generex.random();
System.out.println(randomStr);// a random value from the previous String list
We did something similar in Python not too long ago for a RegEx game that we wrote. We had the constraint that the regex had to be randomly generated, and the selected words had to be real words. You can download the completed game EXE here, and the Python source code here.
Here is a snippet:
def generate_problem(level):
keep_trying = True
while(keep_trying):
regex = gen_regex(level)
# print 'regex = ' + regex
counter = 0
match = 0
notmatch = 0
goodwords = []
badwords = []
num_words = 2 + level * 3
if num_words > 18:
num_words = 18
max_word_length = level + 4
while (counter < 10000) and ((match < num_words) or (notmatch < num_words)):
counter += 1
rand_word = words[random.randint(0,max_word)]
if len(rand_word) > max_word_length:
continue
mo = re.search(regex, rand_word)
if mo:
match += 1
if len(goodwords) < num_words:
goodwords.append(rand_word)
else:
notmatch += 1
if len(badwords) < num_words:
badwords.append(rand_word)
if counter < 10000:
new_prob = problem.problem()
new_prob.title = 'Level ' + str(level)
new_prob.explanation = 'This is a level %d puzzle. ' % level
new_prob.goodwords = goodwords
new_prob.badwords = badwords
new_prob.regex = regex
keep_trying = False
return new_prob
Instead of starting from a regexp, you should be looking into writing a small context free grammer, this will allow you to easily generate such random text. Unfortunately, I know of no tool which will do it directly for you, so you would need to do a bit of code yourself to actually generate the text. If you have not worked with grammers before, I suggest you read a bit about bnf format and "compiler compilers" before proceeding...
I'm not aware of any, although it should be possible. The usual approach is to write a grammar instead of a regular expression, and then create functions for each non-terminal that randomly decide which production to expand. If you could post a description of the kinds of strings that you want to generate, and what language you are using, we may be able to get you started.
