A way to make finding the shortest route faster would have been to: - Make a copy of the map - Highlight big rectangular chunks of road that are not part of the quickest route - Clear all colors(and or text) in that rectangle - REPEAT: Highlight and clear. Highlight and clear. Highlight and clear. etc... - Do that until all pieces of road that are not part of the shortest route are gone. Don't worry if it looks pretty. - Count the remaining road cells that are the shortest route.

Great FWMC, the small error of ABS was nothing but it changes a little bit the score. Overall, everything was perfect and can I ask about the function MID, did you use it to divide the length of the text ? Thanks early , I love the content
@DimEarly 3 күн бұрын
Yes, I used MID to split the text into individual characters. MID(txt,st,len) gives you 'len' characters from the input 'txt' starting at position 'st', so if you give len = 1 and st = 1, 2, 3, ..., n (where n is the length of the text) it gives you the whole string character-by-character.

On Level 6, I am not sure exactly, but wouldnt your scan have worked, if you would have put the indirect around the a in the offset instead of around your Startvalue at the beginng of SCAN? Every video I learn someting. I usually have a lookup table and I really liked your way of building the offset logic with comparing the Arrows. impressive as always. Thanks and keep them coming :)

Thanks Jean! To be honest, I haven't really worked out what went wrong with my first attempt... I've been meaning to write a custom function for a while to take in a starting address and a series of arrows and output all the stops visited along the way (basically what I tried to write on the fly here), but I haven't got around to it. I'll have to go back and take a closer look later...

Yesterday when i tried the case live, i didnt understand anything and got nothing out of it. Now i understand what was meant with a single chosen denomination: from each currency you go to pence. Now you have everything. I tried so much yesterday but i didnt even think about that. Today i wrote a reduce, which checks the possible options for my base and takes all those options again, and repeats. with that i just Multiply my values and I get the exchange rate for my target as result. I am sure there is a more efficient way, but atleast today i had some result, as yesterday was pretty bad for me haha. thanks for your videos. I am looking forward to your other solution :)
@DimEarly 20 күн бұрын
I like the REDUCE approach! You can do something similar without that if you use circular references, which was the approach I was trying to think of, but that's probably the more robust option.

We need to find T from D*1.1^T=3 (or 7) where D is the decay ratio. Divide both sides by D to get 1.1^T=3/D. Then to get T out of the exponent, you apply Log with base 1.1 to both sides. LOG(1.1^T,1.1)=LOG(3/D,1.1). LOG(1.1^T,1.1)=T so T=LOG(3/D,1.1)

You could certainly make it a lot simpler with LAMBDA, or even just with regular dynamic arrays - CONCAT(IFERROR(range,"")) would work fine. But I assume they want to keep it as backward compatible as possible so it works for people who compete on older versions.

I did terribly on this case, not sure why as on a second go managed to get it all done in a similar time. Nerves I think. On question 4 since they are all left handed isn't the question just asking for the code for left in that language? Unless I misunderstand it. So its actually as easy as the first question just xlookup what left is in the given language!

Good point! I didn't think of it at the time, but I noticed Andrew did pick up on it in his live solve. With the setup I had, I could also have saved some time by just looking up the standardized reference column (L / R only) that I had already added... then I could have dropped col I and col J (which I never actually used 😂) and had a relatively simple solution even without spotting that...

Yeah, honestly it reminded me that I should do a better job of the same thing myself! My lambda file is also mostly blank, and I have to keep reminding myself how the parts I don't use as often work... Copying a blank sheet from your lambda file (which you can pin to your taskbar) is a passable way to get them all into a new workbook... but it would be nice if you could have something like the personal macro workbook that's always available by default.

Or you have to open the VBA editor to see what the function wants. Great video.

What a joy to watch you exchange ideas about lambda's and competition approach. I'm curious: are you allowed to bring your lambda's to the live-competition? Diarmuid mentions that you have 15 seconds to prepare your lambda's, but how does that go? Small suggestion for a next time with a screenshare: as I'm on a laptop now, no big screen, so I had some trouble seeing the formula's, and because only one screen no opportunity to simultaneous look at the Excel file.
@nemoyatpeace 25 күн бұрын
You can bring formulas in with you.
@DimEarly 19 күн бұрын
I just realized I never answered this… I think what I meant about the 15 seconds was that you’re usually trying to save a very small amount of time if you’re using a generic prepared LAMBDA - e.g. making a dice lookup wouldn’t take long anyway. So if the LAMBDAs you’re using bring any friction with them, it would be easy for them not to be worth it. You can spend as long as you want preparing LAMBDAs ahead of time, but obviously the more specific you make them, the less likely they are to help on any given case. I sometimes also try to write a last-minute one in the time between seeing the case animation (which you get access to ~10 mins before you have to start) and starting. If you get it right, that can be a big help… but I often prepare something that ends up being worthless!

@Diarmuid, thanks for the video, managed to get part way there on my own, but I couldn't work out how to pass 2 values back in the Reduce/(Scan) formula. I see that you used ({0,""} as a way of combining the 2 values.. later on, you went on to use the @ symbol, and I have searched the web, but can't find anything that explains the use in this context.. LET(toSplit,@a+v, Could you explain the significance of it. I am trying to break this down and evaluating the results at each step, so I'm using SCAN in place of reduce so I can see the resulting array. when I type "toSplit,@a+v" Excel encourages me to go with "toSplit,@a+@v"
