Rank if greater than or equal to zero
This tutorial shows how to rank a number if it is greater than or equal to zero (0) through the use of an Excel formula, with the IF and RANK functions
Hard coded formula
Cell reference formula
|
=IF(C5>=0,RANK(C5,$C$5:$C$11),"")
=IF(C7>=$C$4,RANK(C7,$C$7:$C$13),"")
|
GENERIC FORMULA
=IF(number>=0,RANK(number,range),"")
ARGUMENTS GENERIC FORMULA
=IF(number>=zero,RANK(number,range),"")
ARGUMENTS EXPLANATION This formula uses the IF and RANK functions to rank numbers from a selected range that are greater than or equal to 0, alternatively, the formula will return a blank cell.
Click on either the Hard Coded or Cell Reference button to view the formula that has the value of zero (0) directly entered into the formula or referenced to a specific cell.
In this example the formula ranks the values in range C5 to C11 (hard coded example) or C7 to C13 (cell reference example) to assess which of these numbers is larger than or equal to 0 and rank this number against other numbers in the range that are greater than or equal to 0. For all the other numbers the formula will return a blank cell through the use of double quotation marks (""). |
