How can I make an Equation apply to an entire column, but only use the values in the specific rows?

I am working on a research project using Numbers 09 and have columns for values that require me to use formulas using values in other columns. Becuase I am lazy and have 180 rows of data, I would like to find a way to have a formula apply to an entire column so that I don't have to go row by row inputting the formula.
Essentially, I want to be able to have N(X)=F(X)+G(X). Where X is the row number. Is this possible?
The real formula I want to have is (4*(F(X))^2)/G(X)
Thanks! 

Place this formula in your chosen column in the first row containing data in columns F and G.
=(4*F^2)/G
Press enter to confirm the entry. The result will appear in the cell.
Click (once) on the cell containing the formula.
Shift Click on the cell in the same column on the last row containing data in F and G to select all cells between. .
Go Insert > Fill > Fill down.
Done.
Regards,
Barry

    how can I make a graphic (scatter chart) with 1 "y", but multiple "x" (to make a multiple linear regression)?

    Émilie,
    The default for X-Y Charts is for X values not to be shared, so it's entirely possible for you to create X-Y pair sets that have common Y-values and independent X-values.
    This answer assumes, as always, that I properly interpreted your problem statement. A linear fit line for each pair set should satisfy.

    Hello Sudhanshu Mishra,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    You can have iTunes reference the content where ever it is on your HDD without copying the content to the iTunes library, thus using twice the space.
    If iTunes is set to "Copy files to the iTunes Music folder when adding to library," iTunes will copy all content that is added to the iTunes library to the iTunes Music folder. To adjust this setting or change the location of this folder, go to the Advanced tab in iTunes Preferences.
    From: Adding music and other content to iTunes
              http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1473
    Additionally if you want the content to then ALSO be located in your iTunes Library folder so everything is all kept together nice and tidy, use this:
    Consolidate your files in the iTunes folder
    Depending on how you imported items into iTunes, some items in your library might be stored in different locations (in another folder or on another hard disk, for example).
    You can consolidate all the files in your library in the iTunes folder—for example, to make it easier to move your library to a new computer.
    Choose File > Library > Organize Library.
    Select “Consolidate files.”Files remain in their original locations, and copies are placed in the iTunes folder.
    To create folders (Music, Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, Audiobooks, and so on) inside your iTunes folder, and place all your imported media files in the appropriate folders, select “Reorganize files in the folder ‘iTunes Media.’”

  • How do you make a Spry menu view on all pages but only have to change it one place?

    How do you make a Spry menu view on all pages but only have to change it one place? Someone told me maybe I could create a Library item. Any help will be appreciated.

    If your pages all have the same basic design, using a DW Template would be a way to do it...

  • How can I make my tags applied to BOTH of my email accounts?

    My first email account was with comcast.net; I generated a number of tags and all are applied to incoming messages as desired. I later added my gmail.com account and none of the tags are applied to any of the incoming mail.
    How can I make the tags work for BOTH accounts?
    Thanks in advance.

    Read the user manual that came with your camera or contact the vendor.  My camera asks me where I want my uploads to go to.  There is a setting in its option menu.  Desktop is the default upload feature that my camera has.
    When I connect the memory card to a reader, the photos automatically upload to my desktop.

  • How can I  make my own design for a web page instead of using a template?

    Need to ask the question again. I tried using the blank template, but could not get it to work. I could not insert images and copy where I wanted and in size I wanted.

    rapcom wrote:
    A general question: Is it possible to change the dimensions of the web page? Or even its positioning as a horizontal or vertical format?
    Yes — it's done via iWeb Inspector's Page tab (the second one at the top), editing the values in the +Page Size+ fields. After entering a new value, click the Return key to make it take effect...
    ..By the way, the above image is taken from a tutorial ~ click on the image above to read the tutorial.

    I also would prefer to edit the copy on the blank web page, and cannot do that either. Is it possible to do so?
    Yes, it's possible. But it's difficult to know what exact difficulty you're having, and I perhaps risk stating the obvious... One thing to be aware of is that clicking once inside a text box will simply select that box (you'll see eight +"grab handles"+ for re-sizing). But to edit the text inside, you need to click once more. Experiment with clicking inside and outside text boxes and you'll learn.
    And iWeb's Help menu has several resources ~ the Help viewer, a +Getting Started+ PDF and a link to ten video tutorials. One of the videos briefly demonstrates adding a text box towards the end; click here...
    If after the above you still need help, post back with step-by-step details of the problem.

  • I will sell my touch. how can i make sure that i dont lose any data but the buyer does not access my info.

    i will sell my touch and get the new one. how can i transfer my apps and ID to the new one and erase my info from the old one?
    thanks!

    Yes.  If you do it through the settings on the iPod and have an older iPod, make sure the iPod is charging either via a computer or wall charger.  It can takes hours to erase an older iPod.

  • How can I make waveform graph and/or excel file with two different dynamic DBL values?

    As the question describes, I have two dbl sources from a load cell and linear actuator (from firgelli). I want to make a load/displacement curve from the force readings from the load cell and the displacement readings from the linear actuator. The load cell outputs an analog signal that can be acquired by a DAQ and the actuator comes in with a board and VI program to control the speed and measure the displacement of the actuator to a sample rate of my choosing. Is there a way that I can make a VI where it continues to collect data and construct the graph I'm looking for?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    A couple points about your application:
    1.  Synchronization.  Since you're ultimate goal is a stress/strain curve, it is vital that your force and displacement data be synchronized appropriately.  If your sampling is beyond a few times a second, this is not really possible without some form of hardware synchronization via either a trigger and/or sample clock.  Two NI DAQ boards can be synchronized this way easily, but it seems you're using 3rd party hardware for one of these processes.  Would need to know more about that board to know what options you have.  You could specify what your resolution is in distance, and how fast the article will be moving, to get an idea of how fast to acquire, and how well you'll need to synchronize the data.  Another option, since it appears each data stream will be sampled on a hardware-timed sample clock, they will be offset in time, but not skewed during the acquisition.  You may be able to identify a feature in the data set common to each and use that to remove the timing offset after the process is completed.
    2.  Display.  To display data during the acquisition process, I usually recommend at least one display that plots vs. time.  Much easier to spot irregularities with the acquisition process that way.  However, if you'd like to also plot force vs. displacement, you can use an XY Graph to plot parametrically. For Example, in your case you would use the Displacement data as the X coordinates, and the Force data as the Y coordinates.
    3.  Saving data to file.  I would recommend using the Save to Spreadsheet File.vi (File IO pallette) to save your data.  If you use a comma as the delimiter, and save the file with a *.csv extension, you will have a file that is easily read into excel.  The standard tab-delimited spreadsheet file is also fine, it will just require an extra step to read it into excel to specify to excel what the delimiter is.
    4.  Batch vs. Real-Time Recording (Data File).  If your process is short (< 30 sec) you may be better off acquiring the data, Storing it locally to the VI (Array - usually maintained in a shift register), and then writing the file with a header (acquisition parameters, test article information, data column headers) and the data all at once in batch mode to the file after the process is finished.  If, however, it is longer than that you would be better off starting a data file with a header and appending the data to the file as you go, so that if something happens during your test, you at least have data up to that point.
    Hope this Helps,

  • How can I make a drawing with forms in a column, so that it is fixed to that cell and it will be printed on that cell?

    If I have made  drawings with forms in a column, how can I tie it up on that cell, so it wil be printed on the right place in that column.

    If I have made  drawings with forms in a column,
    Not sure what you mean by "drawings with forms in a column" but if you mean you have a graphical object (photo, drawing, etc.) then you can select that image, command-c to copy to the clipboard, click once in a cell, and command-v to copy. That pastes it into the background of the cell. You can then adjust the width/height of the column/row as desired to display the image.  The image will then follow the cell wherever it goes.

  • How can I make a drag and drop movie clip to disappear when it's dragged in a specific area?

      I have a movie clip that also has the function to duplicate. What I want is that if the user dosent want so many duplicates, to have an area where if he drags the duplicates, they will disappear.  Thank you.

    I've search on google but I did not found any tutorial for this particular thing. I found instead this code : 
    on (press) {     startDrag ("", false);   
    this.swapDepths(_global.depth++);
    on (release, releaseOutside)
    stopDrag ();   
    this.swapDepths(_global.depth++);   
    if (this._x > 493.250000 && this._x < 636.050000 && this._y > 142.900000 && this._y < 271.350000)   
       this.removeMovieClip();   
        } // end if
    but I don't know how to make the _x/_y to work, better said I changed  the values but nothing happend, did I did something wrong ? The first _x/_y stands for the position? I've played with the range values but cant seem to make it happend.

  • How can I make a new album go into a folder in iPhoto without dragging it from the bottom of the list?

    This is something that has bugged me all the years I have used iPhoto. When i create a new album, it always goes to the bottom of my very long list of albums. I would like to be able to select the folder that the album goes in as I create it. Im really tired of dragging the new album from the bottom. With a touch pad it is a very tricky manuver.
    Thanks for your help.

    You can right click in the album area and sort them - as far as I know there is no easy way - suggest to Apple - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback

  • How can i make my officejet 6500a print in black and white only?

    I just bought an officejet 6500a and I can't figure out how to make it print in black in white only.  I print a lot of stuff that doesn't need color and want to save my ink. On some prints it gives me that option when I print. but for the most part it doesn't allow me to change to black and white on things i am printing off the web

    Pages 30-34 of the user manual for the Officejet 6500A covers how to change print preferences for the printer with both Mac and Windows. It covers documents, brochures and photos and covers finding the gray scale option. Here is a link to that manual http://goo.gl/6J61R .
    I hope that this helps.
