In Google Sheets, I want to write a formula that compares the values between two cells in the same row and then inserts a specific symbol in another cell depending on which one is larger. Please see screen shot below:
In my above example, since the value in cell B3 is larger than the value in cell D3, I want to insert the upward pointing delta symbol in cell C3.
Since the value in B4 is smaller than the value in D4, I want to insert the downward pointing delta symbol in cell C4.
Since the value of B5 is equal to the value in D5, I do not insert a symbol at all.
Is there a way for me to enter a formula (or use AppsScript if formula is not available) in column C that would allow me to automatically populate the correct delta symbol? The delta symbol can be found here in Google Sheets: here
>Solution :
You may try:
=ifs(B3>D3,char(9650),B3<D3,char(9660),1,)
- Use conditional formatting to color code the symbol
