Calculating STDEV and other Calcs based on another cells value
Hello,
I am trying to calculate a standard deviation on a column if another column contains a certain value. I have been able to calculate the average using the AverageIFS function, but can't find a way to do it for the stdev function. For example, if there are 3 people throwing a base ball and I have entered 20 data points for each. I would like to calculate the standard deviation based on if the name equals "Joe, "Bob" or "Scott". Thanks, Scott |

Calculating STDEV and other Calcs based on another cells value
Names in the range A1:A10
Numeric values in the range B1:10 Entered as an array** : =STDEV(IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH(A1:A10,{"joe","bob","scot t"},0)),B1:B10)) ** array formulas need to be entered using the key combination of CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER (not just ENTER) -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Scott" <Scott @discussions.microsoft.com wrote in message ...

=STDEV(IF((Team="Pirates")*(ISNUMBER(MATCH(Pitcher ,{"joe","bob","scott"},0))),B1:B10))
Where Team and Pitcher are named ranges. Don't forget to array enter! -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Scott" wrote in message ... Thanks T. Valko, What if I want to match two columns (Team and pitcher)?
