Calculate conditional mode with criteria in Excel

by

To calculate a conditional mode with one or more criteria you can use an array formula based on the IF and MODE functions. Note: this is an array formula and must be entered with control + shift + enter. Formula {=MODE(IF(criteria,data))} Explanation In the example shown, the formula in F5 is: {=MODE(IF(group=E5,data))} where “group” is the named range B5:B14, …

Extract most frequently occurring text in Excel

by

To extract the word or text value that occurs most frequently in a range, you can use a formula based on several functions INDEX, MATCH, and MODE. Formula =INDEX(range,MODE(MATCH(range,range,0))) Explanation In the example shown, the formula in H5 is: =INDEX(B5:F5,MODE(MATCH(B5:F5,B5:F5,0))) Working from the inside out, the MATCH function matches the range against itself. That is, …

Find most frequent text within a range with criteria in Excel

by

To find the most frequently occurring text in a range, based on criteria you supply, you can use an array formula based on several Excel functions MATCH, MODE, INDEX,  and IF. Formula =INDEX(range1,MODE(IF(range2=criteria, MATCH(range1,range1,0)))) Note: this is an array formula and must be entered with control + shift + enter. Explanation In the example shown, the formula …
