Hi Cyberspace,
I'd like to understand the meaning of "--" in front of an Excel
function like :
=--sumproduct(...)
=--substitute(...)
... and other I can't recall
I know that in some programming language it's a way to "decrement" a
variable like i = i - 1 can be i-- or --i following the precedence
Dear johann,
The -- is used as an unary operator to convert a boolean value ie,
TRUE/FALSE in to 1/0. Sumproduct for example does not evaluate non-numeric
values that results in a formula like the boolean results in the array
equation A1:A10="johann".
So to negate this, we use unary operator -- w
come a criteria for what to
summarize.

what about :
{=LARGE(- -($E$1:$E$122=$G1)*$F$1:$F$122,COUNTIF($G$1:$G1,$G1))}
?
