Microsoft Excel @msexcel I need help with solving a problem A company runs 6 shelters in a city. Each shelter keeps a log book of login and logout times of homeless people that come to the shelter. Attached is the log data from the shelters. On 9th May 2020, Person 1 tested positive to the corona virus after leaving Shelter 3 and was immediately isolated. The company, in a bid to curb the spread of the virus in any of their shelters, decided to perform a contact tracing exercise of those that could have been exposed to Person 1. The following assumptions are made for the purpose of this exercise. The infection is only passed from person to person and cannot be transmitted from surfaces or the air. This implies that when a person leaves a place, the people that visit the place after him are not at risk. There is a 14 day period in which the infected person could be asymptomatic. The infection rate of the virus is exponential i.e. one person can infect another person, who can then in turn infect other people he comes in contact with. You have been saddled with the task of generating a report showing a list of those that have visited any of the shelters and could have been infected through person to person contact starting with the index case. Generate a routine that accepts the following parameters, and outputs the list of probable infected persons. Person infected Last Date/time he left the Shelter just before isolation Last visited Shelter before being isolated The routine should be dynamic such that slotting in different parameters would yield an accurate contact trace list.

(Budget) Need ideas for an optimal way to proceed
Hey everyone, I'm working in a hospital and we're asked to keep track of every overtimes, 1:1 surveillance, surplus, etc. (It's a really huge work charge for only 2 employees, thank you pandemic) We're asked to do this in an Excel 2016 table (1 "transaction" = 1 row), by filling in every infos they ask. Just fyi, here's approximatively what the required infos are : Department - Date - Time start - Time end - Break time - Type (overtime, surplus...) - Job title, etc. Of course, I can copy/paste most of the time, but it gets quite tiring and I was simply wondering if you guys had any idea about how I could do what they ask in the most optimal way ? I was thinking about creating like a form, but it seems slower than copy/pasting... Any suggestions ? I know there's a big lack of details, but any tips will probably help me. Thanks a lot in advance !
Please explain the logic behind this issue? Cell range / array question.
Hi there, I've just learned that you can use a function within an range instead of a cell reference. I however do not understand the logic behind it and need some assistance in understanding it. Please help! What I mean, for example, is that you can create a function like sum(A1:offset(x,y,z), where x,y,z are a cell reference, and two whole numbers, respectively. Logically, this seems like it would make sense if the offset function returned a cell reference. However, it does not; it returns a cell value. What is strange to me is that despite the above SUM function working fine, when you input a cell value in the place of offset (even if it is the same value that the offset function returns) then the SUM function fails. For example, if you enter the formula sum(A1:1000), it fails. But if your OFFSET function returns a value of 1000, it works. Could someone please explain this to me? Thanks a lot.
