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!

How to calculate intersections of time intervals contained in an array

Asked by tk_sl1 in Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet Software

Tags: , , ,

Dear experts,

I have an array as follows:

     DATE       T_START     T_END        HOURS            ORDER NUMBER      EMPLOYEE
12.07.2008         08:00      12:00      4                    200803120-00            L004                    
12.07.2008         13:00      17:00      4       200803120-00            L004                    
12.07.2008         10:00      12:00      4       200803119-00            L004                              
12.07.2008         13:00      17:00      4       200803121-00            L004                    
13.07.2008         08:00      12:00      4       200803119-00            L004                    
13.07.2008         08:00      12:00      4       200803121-00            L004                    
13.07.2008         08:00      12:00      4       200803123-00            L004                    

From that data I need to calculate the number of intersecting hours per day.
For example:
On 07/12/08 employee 'L004'  processed order 200803120-00 from  08:00 to 12:00 and order 200803119-00 from  10:00 to 12:00. Of course, that's not possible. In this case the result I need is 4 intersecting hours, 2 hours (10:00 to 12:00) for order 200803120-00 and 2 hours (10:00 to 12:00) for order 200803119-00.
The times 08:00 to 10:00 and 13:00 to 17:00 are accepted as there are no intersecting time intervals.
What do I have to do?
Thanks in advance!
