Table Inside Out

[Harryooo]

I have a table of values that are computed using input values from the first column (y's) and first row (x's). Each value in the table (z's) has a unique set of x and y.

In order to plot z vs x and z vs y I need to create a list of unique x,z and another of y,z. My question is how most efficiently to thus turn this table "inside out." The table will be very large, or I would do it by hand.

Hello and welcome to MrExcel.

Your question is unclear. Please post small samples of what you have and what you want to end up with using Excel Jeanie http://www.excel-jeanie-html.de/html/hlp_schnell_en.php

I finally understand what it is you want to do but don't know how to achieve it.

You want to extract the numbers from your table in an order from left to right, omitting blanks and going to the next row. Then you want to show its row & column number.

Here's an illustration I just made:

Thanks for helping with the clarification. Actually, The order could be by columns instead of rows. Hope someone can solve it.

What pattern do your numbers follow? Is it y₁*y₁+x₁?<script>(function () { var ytLoop = false; var ytPlayList; var ytPLIndex; loopy = document.createElement("div"); loopy.id = "eLoopy"; a = document.createElement("label"); a.id = "eOnOff";

The above is an example. Actually the values are somewhat random. That's why I am investigating them. They could even be complex, which is a complication that I'd rather not address at this time.

 

[Harryooo]

This table will create the complex values of magic squares, i.e. 3,4,5. for all prime numbers and their doubles. The rules are for Y>X, Y is even. The resultant is x^2 + y^2.

Explain that formula in detail. What creates blank cells?
