Finding Median if a value = 1.. help!

[Guest]

Hello,

What I'm trying to do is this: I have a worksheet that has two columns,
Gender and Age. Gender's value can be 1 or 2, 1 meaning male and 2 meaning
female. I've been trying to figure out a function that will select all
values that are 1 and taking the age from the next column and then finding
the median of those values. I've tried VLOOKUP and wierd IF functions to get
this to work, but I cannot get the correct values to be outputted.

Also, if you have any idea how to do mode and range for this same set of
data it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi!

Both array entered with the key combo of CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER:

=MEDIAN(IF(A1:A20=1,B1:B20))

=MODE(IF(A1:A20=1,B1:B20))

Not sure what you mean by "range"?

Hi!

If by "range" you mean the youngest/oldest:

Array entered:

=MIN(IF(A1:A20=1,B1:B20))

=MAX(IF(A1:A20=1,B1:B20))
