I want to find the largest improvement over that person's personal best, so my desired results would be:
<tbody>
</tbody>
Some notes: I'd prefer no helper columns if possible. I'd also prefer to do this in a formula since I have to use Google Sheets.
I tried this formula, which works to find the max improvement on an individual row, but not on the data as a whole (since MAX doesn't return an array):
=ArrayFormula(MAX({G4:G666;H4:H666;I4:I666;J4:J666}-{MAX(F4:F666);MAX(F4:G666);MAX(F4:H666);MAX(F4:I666)}))
That formula would also require updating each time a column was added. Something that may be helpful is a formula that can return an array containing the max improvement of each row.
Name | May | June | July | Aug | Sept |
Bob | 100 | 50 | 150 | 175 | 200 |
Paul | 50 | 100 | 175 | 250 | 200 |
Mary | 25 | 20 | 150 | 100 | 50 |
