    This is a useful formula that just fills down a single item:
    =EXPAND(G2,5,,G2)
    In the video I showed how to fill down three columns, but I should have also shown just one column, as with this formula.

      @richardhay645 2 роки тому +1

      @@excelisfun You just made my life easier! You were confused by my comment on the STACKS/Crosstab video when I asked about 2 things: 1) using VSTACK rather than Cut/Paste to append new data to the data set. You did the adding of data with VSTACK in this video. I like to do that because VSTACK is not destructive of the original data set and you can add to any existing table and have your report update in the correct place in the VSTACK result. You illustrated that perfectly in this video. 2) I suggested that you can use TOROWS/COLS as a substitute for TRANSPOSE and specifically that TOROWS(UNIQUE([Product Column])) gave the same result as TRANSPOSE(UNIQUE([Product Column])). At that time I had not tried it but now I have. No real advantage but when you have a single column TOROWS spills the Column as a Row and behaves like TRANSPOSE. While this video does not address this function choice it did illustrate the principle. I hope this clarifies my awkwardly stated comment from yesterday. Finally I think 13 of 14 functions have good names but TAKE not so much!! LOL

    As a Belgian French speaking avid follower of your channel, I was interested to test these functions in Excel in French. It is sometimes hard to find the equivalent in French of these functions, though you have it in the answer (an) tab of your exemple workbook, if one opens it in Excel in French. So, for French speaking users:
    TEXTSPLIT() = FRACTIONNER.TEXTE()
    TEXTBEFORE() = TEXTE.AVANT()
    TEXTAFTER() = TEXTE.APRES()
    VSTACK() =ASSEMB.V()
    HSTACK() = ASSEMB.H()
    CHOOSECOLS() = CHOISIRCOLS()
    CHOOSEROWS() = CHOISIRLIGNES()
    DROP() = EXCLURE()
    TAKE() = PRENDRE()
    EXPAND() = ETENDRE()
    TOCOL() = DANSCOL()
    TOROW() = DANSLIGNE()
    WRAPCOLS() = ORGA.COLS()
    WRAPROWS() = ORGA.LIGNES()

    Great video and use cases, Mike!
    OK, ‘everyone’ seems to have these new functions but me :-( ;-)
    Here’s my feedback so far:
    • the default behavior for TOCOL should be “column-wise” (just like my FlattenH LAMBDA ;-) - for intuitive behavior,
    • I like WRAP because it mentions the word “vector” ;-)
    • We still need a fill-down function as smart as the one in PQ-M. MS: (:-p)
    Impatiently yours. :-)

    • @ricos1497
      @ricos1497 2 роки тому

      If it helps, I don't have the new functions yet either! I agree about the default for tocol, worth giving feedback on user voice for that change as I think it's an error not to have it as you suggest, it would be an easy amendment giving a slight improvement (just more intuitive as you suggest).

    • @excelisfun

      Dear Vector Master Geert,
      1) I sooooo agree about TOCOL and how it should have column as default. Because stacking columns with such ease is very useful.

      @@excelisfun Mike, your EXPAND++ formula is not clunky at all, it’s just that:
      • it’s a construct of 3 functions, where in PQ-M it’s only 1,
      • your formula is not a true Fill Down in the PQ-M sense: e.g. the values are evenly distributed / the subvectors are of equal length.
      Maybe someone should write an XL Lambda for a true Fill Down function. I wonder who could do that… ;-)
      PS: …and we still need Fill Down as an operation in the ribbon as well (not just as a function).

    For the EXPAND function can you pad with a formula and is there a way to have multiple padding formulas? Simple example would be take an array of data and expand to give a total or average. It would be nice if you could say expand by four and give me the total, average, min, and max.

      I haven't got the functions yet, but I imagine using it to add subtotals (at each change of X), so you can recreate pivot functionality. You can expand a range by the unique count of the field you want to subtotal, with padded text of "subtotal". I don't know if you can provide an array of values to the pad_with criteria, but if so you could pass field names and summed values. Obviously you'd have to then sort to show the subtotals correctly.

    Mike, do you work / worked on SAP system?
    if so youll know some SAP S3 reports are total nightmare to work with, if you help SAP user to set the report in SAP to more easy-to-work-with-format and then that format / layout to transform into something more usefull. thats where expand function can be very helpfull - to fill empty cells below value.
    Imagine this: in A1, A10, A25 you have some values, and all the cells between needs the value repeated from the cell Above, co range A2:A9 would get value of cell A1,
    normaly we would use PQ fill down option, but expand can help with that if there is aneed for non power query solution.

Each of the data cleaning tools have other uses and scenarios also.
