Hi there,
Tried and tried but can´t get what I need.
My data in A looks something like this:
0.2
0.0
-0.7
3.6
-0.2
8.6
0.3
0.0
-1.1
5.0
-5.1
-3.2
11.1
18.1
-2.70
And the "bin ranges" look like this:
-3.00+
-2.90 to -2.00
-1.90 to -1.00
-0.90 to 0.90
1.00 to 1.90
2.00 to 2.90
3.00+

And I need to calculate the highest consecutive number for each "bin range". So the results should look like this:
-3.00+ =2
-2.90 to -2.00 =1
-1.90 to -1.00 =1
-0.90 to 0.90 =3
1.00 to 1.90 =0
2.00 to 2.90 =0
3.00+ =2

Many thanks

Observe the numbers in red
C2 (a small negative number)
=-(10^6)

D8 (a big positive number)
=10^6

Array formula in E2 copied down
=MAX(FREQUENCY(IF((A$2:A$16>=C2)*(A$2:A$16<=D2),ROW(A$2:A$16)),IF(1-(A$2:A$16>=C2)*(A$2:A$16<=D2),ROW(A$2:A$16))))
Ctrl+Shift+Enter

Hope this helps

Hi Marcelo,
It works perfect. Thanks. If I increase the size of the data range but it contains blanks...how can I exclude those blanks in the formula?
