Challenge #271: Dynamic Double Dip

KaneG

I would usually transpose and filter in this case, but I thought I would skip that and find 2 other ways

 

Spoiler
The first uses Dynamic Select to split the data, and after doing the calculation, I couldn't decide which way to combine the data back, so included both.

The second method uses the arrange tool, I normally don't like having that much manual configuration, but given they are months, I don't think extra data would need to be dealt with.

Fun challenge! I know there is probably an easier way or a way to do this with less tools. I will definitely be checking out other solutions.

2nd method is definitely more robust....

Difficult to find a second way to do it, utilized the Arrange tool to Transpose but it led to it becoming more manual as well.

Looking at other solutions, there are so many different ways I could have solved this. Love these type of challenges.
