How to fix lower and upper bounds for data
Hi I have data in the following fomat! I want to fix the lower and upper
bounds for each hour of a day. It doesn't ,mean the exact lower and upper bounds: i. upper bound -it should be like the average of a few higher values and ii. lower bound -- average of few lower values. What are the different ways to deal with this? data: Date Hour 4/2/06 4/3 4/4 4/5 ...... 4/15 4/16 4/17 1 208 196 119 44 ... 58 30 350 2 445 44 34 32 44 56 123 3 4 5 .. .. .. 22 23 24 |
How to fix lower and upper bounds for data
Maybe something like this:
For hourly data from B2:B25 The average of the 3 largest values in that range B26: =AVERAGE(LARGE(B2:B25,{1,2,3})) The average of the 3 smallest values in that range B27: =AVERAGE(SMALL(B2:B25,{1,2,3})) Does that help? *********** Regards, Ron XL2002, WinXP-Pro "charter_SKR" wrote: Hi I have data in the following fomat!
