Example
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following table was used to
calculate the medals for athletes taking part in a race.
|
|||||||
|
The Time for each athlete is
entered.
|
|||||||
|
The =RANK() function calculates
the finishing position of each athlete.
|
|||||||
|
The =CHOOSE() then allocates the
correct medal.
|
|||||||
|
The =IF() has been used to filter
out any positions above 3, as this would cause
|
|||||||
|
the error of #VALUE to appear, due
to the fact the =CHOOSE() has only three items in it.
