    Percentrank With an If Statement

    Hi Fellas,

    Been a while and glad to be back on the forums (unfortunately have not done a lot of excel recently )

    I have two columns with the following data set:
    Column A Column B Column C
    0 11.5
    0 13.5
    0 12.2
    1 14.0
    1 7
    1 12
    0 2
    0 3
    0 9.6
    1 2.3

    I want to run a percent rank function in column C where I am only calculating the percent rank on numbers which have a 1 associated with them in Column A. So for example, the first number 11.5 would have a zero next to it in column C... all of the numbers until the fourth number would have a zero next to them. Then the 4th number would have a value of 1 (because its the largest number)... the last number (2.3) would have a value of 0 as its in the zero percentile. The numbers in between would correspond to the percentile in which they lie (i.e. numbers 7 and 12, roughly .33 and .66 respectively). Any thoughts for how to do this in Column C?

    Thanks!

    Larry

    with a helper column and non array formula

    C1: =IF(A1=1,B1,"")
    D1: =IFERROR(RANK.EQ(IF(A1=1,B1,""),$C$1:$C$10,1)/(COUNT($C$1:$C$10)-1)-1/(COUNT($C$1:$C$10)-1),"")

    C1:D1 copied down

    Thanks Hemesh - for some reason it counts the final value as not 1 (but a smaller number say 0.9115) using this approach. I tried changing the formula to percentrank.inc and still same result. Any thoughts?

    Two thoughts
    1. Try the following array entered formula*: =IF(a1=0,"",PERCENTRANK.INC(IF(A$1:A$10=1,B$1:B$10),B1))
    2. PERCENTRANK.INC was introduced in the 2010 version of Excel (please update your profile)
    *Array entered formulas are confirmed by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to activate the array, not just ENTER. You will know the array is active when you see curly braces { } appear around your formula. If you do not CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER you will get an error or a clearly incorrect answer.
