Excel help.
I'm have a bit of trouble with an excel function and was hoping somebody could help.
I have a table of data, column A is a list of dates, and column D is a list of values.
These are plotted on a table. The table also displays the trend line for the data.
Column D is incomplete, and as it is filled out one cell per day, the trend line adjusts.
I want to find to be able to manipulate the equation of the trend line to find the project value on X date, or date of trend will hit Y value, etc.
For the subset of data that is completed, that's easy using FORECAST or a bit of algebra with SLOPE and INTERCEPT. But when I drag the range to include incomplete cells, it returns and N/A.
I basically want the the equations to only calculate based as the data filled in so far. Basically ignore the blacks (which aren't fully blank as they contain formulas)Last edited by Mellor; 23-02-18, 04:04.

Agree though that this time MTC seems to be on the snowmaggedon bus, which makes me wonder if it just might happen.

Originally posted by Hitchhiker's Guide To... View PostNot sure about the budget but Pandemic Legacy (Season 1) is a pure genius of a game. There's a biggish learning process in Alchemists. Pandemic Legacy also has the advantage of being about now as opposed to the fantasy setting of Catan. Takenoko would also show them a bit of the whimsical side to boardgames and it's a great game with very little learning. Pandemic Legacy game 1 is quite straightforward and then gets progressively more devilish. On balance maybe Takenoko for the audience but Pandemic is a better game. The Takenoko artwork is also fantastic. King of Tokyo too for an alternative highly popular Japanese game.

He called it "Drill It". It's a timber box with a map of Auckland drawn on to it. Basically you're paying to drill for oil.
He designed a box that is filled with a few pieces of timber and the areas are separated by screws. You basically shake the box and the pieces of timber are randomly placed underneath.
There's holes in the board which a pin will fit into. You put the pin into the board, if you hit a piece of timber, you've struck oil. People pay for landing in your area I think.
I cant remember the exact rules but you pay different amounts to drill at various locations throughout Auckland, larger areas more expensive, areas of harbour, some islands etc.
He mentioned there's some variations of games online so I'm not sure how much of it is an original idea.
However, it's quite cool taking out a board game you at least constructed yourself.
Similar idea to this it seems:

The extent of excel in my work is listing materials and finishes.

Should be as simple as using an IF statement to ignore blank cells.
Got around it by IF'ing the column into a hidden column with the blanks as actual blanks. Then Forecast works. Job done

Starting using audible and have decided audio books are great. Have chosen Sapiens as a first book and it's really well put together. Doing a really good job of outing us as monkeys with gossiping skills.
It's great to have that rewind x seconds feature as my mind wanders a bit thinking about whatever was said or else looking at some fine young thing and back 15 seconds I go. Not used to paying attention to one thing any more.

Very strange, i got my jeans delivery of three pairs of jeans from Quiksilver and they had been opened, they were repackaged by dpd. The odd thing was there was also a random €70 hoody in there with the tag still on from DC, a different company! It's dirty but new, wtf was going on there. Looks like they dirtied it somehow during package inspections and hid the evidence by giving it to me or something.

Major breaking story in the tabloids this morning, with a huge falling out between IPB heroine Twink and IPB hero Rory from Mrs Browns Boys.
Turns out with was Rory who paid off her mortgage debt that time, but things have turned sour since then.

Originally posted by Hitchhiker's Guide To... View PostFilling out kid2s school application for September. Another €250 a month bill there to go on top of kid1s when you add up the afterschool care, meals, schoolbooks, etc. Socialist France does nothing for free!
It's a private school chosen as its bilingual, so €80 of that is the cost of the school, but you'd still be paying €170 a month in a public school. The cost falls a lot if you're on lowish income, but anyone on over about €45k a year is paying full whack.
I suspect the dirty secret to the success of France's clearly superior public services is that people actually pay for them.
Also, do you mean you pay for normal bog standard schools as well? so no free education?
We are lucky that I have the flexibility to work partly at home and partly at the office, so we balance our work lives to cover this and don't need the afterschool club. The little one has just started Maltese lessons and you get 57 hours of lessons for €60 which is brilliant.
Just had her parents day there and she is doing great, especially the Maltese. They did a social studies project to do and they had the choice to do it in English or Maltese. She got a C grade and she chose to do it in Maltese. The teacher was very impressed she attempted it in Maltese.
She has her Maltese exam on Tuesday which was a 5-page exam and she had only 2 mistakes on the whole thing. The teacher can't believe she has only been in Malta less than 2 years and this is her second year in school. She loves languages and it is showing.
What would be an average wage in France for say...
A) Working in a shop
B) Office Work
C) Office Management?

Originally posted by Hitchhiker's Guide To... View PostYeah you pay for a normal bog standard school. Although all the schools are good. But its based on your income, and your not paying for school but for extras like lunch and afterschool care.
French wages are very low, as there's 50% employer charges on every penny paid which naturally depresses what can be paid to the employee.
I'd say:
A) Working in a shop: €18,000
B) Office work: €25,000
C) Office management: €35,000
That's very impressive with the Maltese!!!
In Malta, I would say
A) €12-15,000
B) €20-25,000
C) Can be anything
The salaries in iGaming can be staggering. And if you work in a cafe, expect a pittance. My 17year old works work 5.20 an hour or 6.00 on a Sunday and get's double on holidays. But that is great for her as she just turned 17 a few weeks back. She is working in a bakery shop and mostly loves it.
It is weird how the Countries are all so different. Not sure what you mean about the 50% though?

Trump’s solution for the rampant violence targeting young Americans is something that already exists.
“You see the movies – they’re so violent. And yet, a kid is able to see the movies if sex isn’t involved but killing is involved. Maybe they have to put a rating system for that,” Trump suggested.People say I should be more humble I hope they understand, they don't listen when you mumble

@ Situation - How good/bad are Milan this season?
They are 2.66 to beat Arsenal in San Siro, and 2.55 to qualify. Seems like massive prices, but i'm basing that on nothing really. Both sides have very similar domestic records this season, but really thought it would be a coinflip considering Arsenal's plight at the moment.

But they've been playing their weakened side in Europa league some games... Not that arsenal have been going full strength either so it's not to easy to predict lineups. You'd think they'd both see this as their route to CL next season now.
I'd say hold tight for lineups in first leg and if Milan go full strength then bet, if not I'd leave it tbh.Last edited by The Situation; 23-02-18, 19:41.Profit before people.
