Using Excel Linest function with blank cells
I need LINEST
function to be applied with blank cells to get the slope parameter as well as the associated standard error. I can get the slope parameter with a normal function that may resolve the problem via other complementary functions, but not its standard error, I think. Is there any solution for using LINEST
with blank cells in array form? Any ideas, please?
I’m guessing you have something like
where B = 2×A+3, but with some B data missing. Filter out your blank Y (B) values:
Now select your data, type Alt+;, copy, and paste somewhere (probably a new sheet would be good). You now have just your complete data:
and you should be able to get your stats from that.
