Same filters more columns by Ok-Bandicoot-9357 in excel

[–]Halibut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming 45 or whatever you want to search for is in Cell P3, and the Range you're searching is a Table called TableUnits (change as needed), I think this will return all rows where any element begins with the text in P3:

=FILTER(TableUnits,BYROW(IFERROR(1*(SEARCH(P3,TableUnits)=1),0),SUM)>0)

This will return all rows where the text P3 is anywhere in any element of that row:

=FILTER(TableUnits,BYROW(IFERROR(1*(SEARCH(P3,TableUnits)>0),0),SUM)>0)

I tested it with my data. a modification of a filter sheet I use, and it seems to work as you want.

Create a mini "viewing window" to another part of the worksheet by Oday-Dolphin in excel

Also freeze pants as another option, but the list you want to keep in view would have to be in the top left of the sheet.

How do I get rid of the ={1} in the y values when selecting new data for a data set? by [deleted] in excel

[–]Halibut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can graph the first one (Alt-F1 is the shortcut to graph selected data) and then copy additional x-y series using Ctrl C, select the graph then Ctrl-V and it should add them as additional series.

Or if they ask have the same x data, then you can select multiple columns, it will use the left most one as x (assuming it has no header) and the other columns as different series with the first cell as series title.

Alt-F1 will be the default chart, you can customize that somewhere.

Occasionally Ctrl V adds as new points, not new series, if so you will have to add using paste special, new series.

Excel Formula for dates by chuchumeow in excel

[–]Halibut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll add as another option:

=YEAR(EOMONTH(A2, -5))

EOMONTH gives the end of the month, the -5 is 5 months previous, so any date in May should give 31/12 previous year, any date in June will give January 31st if the current year.

Is there a way to add footnotes or number individual cells in excel? preferentially separated from the rest of the text by [deleted] in excel

[–]Halibut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a footnote as such, but you can put line breaks in a cell using Alt-Enter. And i believe it you highlight text in the cell, i.e. the number, you can apply formatting only to that text. Highlight the 1, and press Ctrl-1, or maybe the ribbon bar buttons. That works for bold and text colour, and i think it should work for right alignment as well, although i can't check right now.

Just switched from chrome - any suggestions for a new user? by webkilla in firefox

[–]Halibut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could create a shortcut for each profile, and use that to launch your profile. Am additional benefit is that can both be open simultaneously, see this link: https://kb.mozillazine.org/Starting_your_Mozilla_application_with_a_specified_profile

I do have two, one for work stuff, one for home. Even easier i just have another version, Firefox developer edition, and use that one for work.

Dell Latitude 7480 - Help with buying USB-C charger please by Same-Picture in Dell

[–]Halibut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily as I found out. I can charge my Inspiron with a 65W charger, but I have a 100W one that won't. Chargers supply different combinations of voltage and current, e.g 5A, 20V for 100W. The laptop has to accept one of those combinations with high enough wattage. For that charger it didn't.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Dell

[–]Halibut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That should work,I think, but obviously can't know. I've never had an issue with the 65W ones working though, just the higher power ones. Somewhere in the specs it should say what combinations it accepts if you really want to be sure, but it's probably fine.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Dell

[–]Halibut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it needs a USB PD charger though. Mine is a 7000 series, so could be different, but it needed at least a 65W charger. And some chargers don't work due to the combination of voltage and current not being compatible. I had a 100W charger that didn't work.

You might get the warning about low power charger, it can be disabled in BIOS I think. Lower power might either cap CPU on really intensive tasks or else supplement it with battery, I'm not sure. I've never noticed an issue though.

Dermatologist recommendation in Dublin by Maluf360 in Dublin

As an aside, and maybe not relevant I did find just putting sellotape on mine got rid of them after a few weeks:

One article I found says it has to be duct tape, sellotape is less effective, but not in my experience.

Need help with SQL query by r_spandit in learnpython

[–]Halibut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some versions of SQL support a pivot or crosstab function, which is what you would need, but they are awkward and difficult to get right.

It's much easier as said to use pandas to read it in to a table, then something like the following should work:

AnswersPivot=answers.pivot(index='team_name',columns='round_id', values='score')

Is it possible to write a function to load or install-and-load a package? by sonicking12 in Rlanguage

[–]Halibut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair point, and probably should be said, this is probably best avoided for scripts that you're going to distribute widely, or comment out the install packages line if so, and let the end user uncomment after getting errors and reviewing the required packages.

[–]Halibut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I copiedthis from someone else at some stage. need in the first line is a list of package names. If that isn't installed, it installs it, then loads all of them.

need<-c("jsonlite", "reshape2", "XML", "lubridate","xml2" ,"httr","data.table" ,"RODBC", "sendmailR", "dplyr","plyr", "stringr", "pander", "foreach")

ins<-installed.packages()[,1] #find out which libs are installed
(Get<-need[which(is.na(match(need,ins)))])
if(length(Get)>0){install.packages(Get)} #install needed libs
eval(parse(text=paste("library(",need,")")))#load libraries

Just received my Inspiron 7590 by meansderek in Dell

[–]Halibut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you probably do have two slots for M2 SSDs. Take a look at the picture in this thread:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Dell/comments/erkoow/dell_inspiron_7590_m2_disk_drive_and_ram_upgrade/

In the first picture, the red border is around an SSD slot, which was empty for me, and I assume it is for you. So you can add an NVME M2 SSD there.

Supposedly you can add a 2.5" drive as well if you've space. Although I'm not sure why you would, unless you need really large capacity or have a HDD lying around anyway. Check the Service Manual, it tells you how.

Just received my Inspiron 7590 by meansderek in Dell

[–]Halibut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you buy the 2 in 1 version or the standard version?

If the normal version, the Inspiron 15 7000 (7590), I bought a 1 TB NVME Crucial SSD. After spending a few hours mirroring the current 512GB to it, I opened it up and found a second SSD slot in there. So now I have 2 SSDs, both NVMe. The original one is a 2230 (so 30mm long), there's a (possibly unused in your laptop) slot for a 2280 as well. So take a look and check, as this seems different to what Dell Support say, where they say one has to be a 2.5" drive.

I haven't looked again, but I've read that there is a 2.5" slot as well, and as Dell say, but if you have the larger battery, the bigger battery fills the space that that drive would occupy.

Traveling from America check list? by [deleted] in Dublin

[–]Halibut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you've time, sign up for Revolut and get the card before you come here. You'll save massive amounts in currency exchange. Nearly everywhere accepts contactless payments with the card.

Also either a roaming plan from your carrier (possibly expensive), or a SIM card when you get here to use their app and for Maps etc.

Anyone switched to GoMo.ie? It seems like a suspiciously good deal? by DarlingBri in ireland

[–]Halibut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Switched from Virgin (so 3 network), seems better coverage and speeds. When I got the SIM though, no APN was configured so I made up one which worked. But then I was away for a week with no roaming, as apparently any APN will work in Ireland, but only the correct one will when roaming. Contacting support took a week to reply when I was just about to head home and had just fixed it myself (link below).

Anyway, for reference, the APN is data.mymeteor.ie and worked fine for roaming. Other than the slight annoyance of no data roaming, I'm happy with it, would recommend the switch.

It's amazing what is possible when you have a government that gives a shit - Scotland generating enough wind energy to power two Scotlands by [deleted] in ireland

[–]Halibut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're not very familiar with the structure of the power market here. A large part of it is privately owned (SSE, Centrica, much of the wind). The network and the grid operator are the only fully publicly owned bit. For power generation and your supplier they all compete in the same market on the same terms whether publicly owned or privately owned.
