Excel - COLUMN Function Problem - Expert Solution

Question description:
This user has given permission to use the problem statement for this blog.

Hello! There is a column with a certain number of rows in it. I need to calculate two averages: the average of every second row starting from the 1st one (aka the average of every odd-th cell) and the average of every second row starting from the 2nd one (aka the average of every even-th cell). I got tangled up with =OFFSET... Thanks!

Excelchat Expert 17/12/2017 - 03:57
So you need only both the values
Excelchat Expert 17/12/2017 - 03:57
odd row's average
Excelchat Expert 17/12/2017 - 03:57
and for even too, right?
User 17/12/2017 - 03:58
yes
Excelchat Expert 17/12/2017 - 03:58
Great!
User 17/12/2017 - 03:59
i mean i would need the formula too

Excelchat Expert 17/12/2017 - 03:59
Can you see the formula?
User 17/12/2017 - 04:00
This is the easy way, works if you have just a couple of values. I'd need something more scalabe, something that works with hundreds of cells in a column.
User 17/12/2017 - 04:00
*scalable
