Default Excel and the Olympic Games

And it can deal with those as well.

And so ... your question is?

Hello All!

I notice that various newspapers are beginning to proclaim "winners" for
the Games based on medal count. The commonest counts can dealt with by
Excel and it was interesting in 2004 that various reasonable weighting
schemes for gold, silver, bronze, 1:1:1(total medals), 5:3:1 and 3:2:1,
made no difference to the order of the top 10 countries. There were a few
small differences if only gold medals were counted.
