The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Excel scripting: Calculating unevenly distributed values

Asked by haravallabhan in VB Script, Perl Programming Language, Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet Software

Tags: , ,

Hi,
     I have a challenge in computing some data in excel sheet.
The data looks like this
The logic is

I need to calculate the value in column D (Length) on rows having the value as CQU_I (column A) by subtracting Column C's value containing the string in column A as CQU_I from the first succeeding value in column C containing the value in column A as S_CI.

eg { D5=(C6-C5) ,
D10=(C13-C10) ,
D11=(C13-C11) ,
D12=(C13-C12) ,
D14=(C15-C14) }

Is there a way to do this easily in excel (I use excel 2007)?  I  was told that one could do this using VB Script in excel but I am not a VB programmer. Could someone help me with this ?  
any script on perl/python/jscript to do this will be quite useful too.
This will be much appreciated.

Thank you.
