Hello everyone,
This question is one that I have quite often when I do data analysis at my job :
I am very often working with data concerning time of arrival / time of departure of patients.
I want to do bar graph of the number of patients actually there during each one hour period.
Exemple :
Patient A arrival 8 am departure 12 am
Patient B arrival 10 am departure 2pm
I want a bar value 1 for 8-9, then a bar value of 1 for 9-10 then a bar value of 2 for 10-11 and a bar value of 2 for 11-12 then a bar value of 1 for 12am-1pm and bar value of 1 for 1pm-2pm.
The only way that I have managed to do that so far is to create a column for each time slot and then for each patient (each line on my excel table) with a long 'if, if if... formula' depending of course on the arrival time / departure time, plug 1 if patient is there during the time slot or nothing if he was not there, and then do a chart with this raw data.
I was wondering if there was any other way, if there is an excel time function which I could use, specifying the time slot and time of arrival/departure which could directly give '1' if patient was there ' if he was not. or a graph who could directly do that without the 24 column needed to chart a day's worth of activity.
Thank you for your help, any feedback/advice would help me a lot.
