This was a fun one because it challenged me to think in a different way to know how to find the “most complete rows”. Took me quite a while.

This was tough for me, but I did learn a lot while watching the solution video to piece it all together.

Thanks for the challenge! I’ve definitely never used the absolute function before, so it was fun learning how to do that!

My first thought was to use the sample tool to reduce the rows. I had to try to wrap my head around the why of using the absolute function, though.

This was more difficult than others I’ve done, I think because of some terminology I haven’t really used before. Here’s my solution!

It took me a bit to figure out the part with the absolute function to find the most complete records. Thank you for the challenge!
