Updating a table with Excel formula -


i have 2 working days dates, first_date , second_date.

i have data table decreasing working date:

second_date        value 1     second_date - 1    value 2     second_date - 2    value 3        ....             ....     first_date         value n     first_date -1      value n + 1        ....             ....

the table doesn't stop after first date.

i wanted plot value between first_date , second_date. i've found way dynamically choose x/y values: excel variables x values

however, have problem, when choose date out of bound of data table doesn't plot i've asked (which normal). update data table depending on dates.

the dates in data table built: =second_date in first row (d4), =+workday(d4,-1) in second row, , used click , drags tool build other rows recursively.

is there way stop recursion first date without vba? how build such table formulas?

without using vba way generate data dynamically can think generate data conditionally on falling inside time frame set between 2 dates. said require 3 months data "empty" cells not impact performance significantly.

specifically change formula d5 onward following (assuming d4=second_date):

=if(iferror(workday(d4,-1)>=first_date,false),workday(d4,-1),#n/a)

use similar conditional logic generate values in second column. want make sure if date condition not met outputs #n/a value. important when generating graph (more on below).

you can generate graph including maximum dimensions of table (for max 3 months: ~60 workdays). when change dates include #n/a operator on dates outside range. graph ignore these datasets adapting scale creating graph date ranges user wants.

if inclusion of #n/a concern there further options. can create conditional formatting makes font white #n/a's cosmetic resolution. or can configure chart ignore empty cells , replace in above formula "" #n/a, achieving same result.

hope helps. please let me know if further clarification required or if not meet specific needs. cheers

Why does Ruby on Rails generate add a blank line to the end of a file? -

running rails generate controller foo home results in: class foocontroller < application controller def home end end (there's nothing on line in actual file, blank line) is there purpose blank line? it's common use newline indicate end of line, last line. many editors (like vi, use) add in newline silently. consensus text files (especially in unix world) should end in newline, , there have been problems historically if wasn't present. why should text files end newline? the tool used count lines in file "wc" counts newlines in file, without trailing newline show 3 instead of 4. it improves readability of templates used in generator. consider: https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/railties/lib/rails/generators/rails/controller/templates/controller.rb to remove trailing newline, template have last line of: end<% end -%> instead of: end <% end -%> that seems less readable me. the discussion below refers
