check two conditions in two different columns in excel and count the matches
- by user1727103
I've trying to create a Error Log to help me analyse my mistakes. So for simplicity, lets assume I have two columns "Type of Question" - with values SC,RC,CR and another column that indicates whether I got this question "right/wrong".Let's assume this is my table:
Question No. | Right/Wrong | Question Type
| Right | SC
| Right | RC
| Wrong | SC
| Wrong | CR
| Right | RC
(Pardon my formatting skills).
And I want an output table like this
Type of Question | Right | Wrong | Total
SC | 1 | 1 | 2
RC | 2 | 0 | 2
CR | 0 | 1 | 1
So basically what I want to do is check Column3 for SC using =COUNTIF(C1:C5,"SC"), and return the total number of SC questions, and then outta the SC , I need to find out which are Right.If I know the right and the total I can get the wrong.
I have never written a macro so a formula based answer would suffice.
