What You'll Learn:
- Dynamic Data Analysis: Learn to dynamically extract and analyze data from non-adjacent columns using the FILTER function.
- Sorting and Filtering Tricks: Unveil tricks to sort and filter data based on specific criteria, making your analysis more efficient and accurate.
- Handling Unique Values: Explore techniques to extract unique values from different columns for a comprehensive data overview.
- Practical Examples: Implement these skills in real-world scenarios, such as employee salary analysis, to gain actionable insights.
So, let's say we have a dataset with 6 columns but we're only interested in the information in column 2 and 5, i.e. in non-adjacent columns. Plus, we don't want to get "all" value from these columns but instead only records that match a certain criteria. And we want it to be in a dynamic way so whenever we change the criteria, the result updates automatically.
I'll show you an Excel trick that get's this done in record time. The secret is to broadcast array constants in our formula. And not only that: You can also use this to get a UNIQUE list of combinations that are in non-adjacent columns.
As a bonus tip I'll show you how you can SORT the result based on a value that's not in the filtered end result.
Many thanks to my student Adam Payne for sharing this method with me!
