Spotted that and corrected by my own!
Last thing: if I type N in the question, cell A(N+1) gets ignored (I am not able to ignore cell A1).

Thank you, however I am getting this error when I type a number at the question.

Code:
Question 1:
2
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "script.py", line 50, in
    if ignored_cell > 23 or number < 0:

Any hint?

Oh man I am so sorry, I forgot to add into the algo DdDsCdCs and DsDcCs. That's why you ain't getting the correct result.
It should add value if the A cell contains a mix of Dc, Ds, Dd, Cd, Cs. All possible combinations amongst these letters must be counted in.

Between we're almost there, very nice job!

But maybe I am confusing bash with something like, what I meant is, I would to like to have a normal text code which I will eventually make it executable with the command chmod and run it with ./command

You are correct, bash is the right thing if you don't need graphical interface (just the console). Let's wait and see if someone agrees to your price (0.05 BTC)

Hello there, I am currently looking for someone who writes me down a linux bash script which reads from a .xls file and then do some calc.

The task is not as easy as it seems. I guess you should first convert your .xls file to a CSV format (comma separated values) from within Excel (you can export to a .csv file)...

I could do that, but surely not for 0.03 BTC

Xls format is not necessary. I take the table from a web page, so if preferred, I can paste it to a csv file or whatever file format suits the best.

Okay, 0.3 BTC and escrow. The task is not difficult, but you should understand that this is not a monkey business. I have developed sophisticated utilities for importing and exporting csv files (c++/qt, both for Windows and Linux), so it is not quite up to my level, and if you find someone cheaper, then more power to you (and I'm lazy as hell)...

Just curious, why bash?

0.3 BTC is quite too much for my efforts. 0.05 BTC is the  very maximum offer I can reach at the moment.
This a prototype of the web page I will take cells from http://leghe.fantagazzetta.com/fantalega-dei-campioni/formazioni
I would not use an escrow for such low amount of money, I have made several trades in the past and a very recent 1 BTC trade. Everything went smooth, check my trust.
Anyway if you do not feel comfortable with the lack of an escrow feel free to find a reputable one on the forum and give me his contact please.
I ask for bash cause I am on a linux machine and I  would like to see the whole code with having a chance to edit it without the need of installing a compiler or whatever.
But maybe I am confusing bash with something like, what I meant is, I would to like to have a normal text code which I will eventually make it executable with the command chmod and run it with ./command

Hello there, I am currently looking for someone who writes me down a linux bash script which reads from a .xls file and then do some calc.
I would like to launch the script from the terminal with the command ./script -l path/to/file.xls
This is the algorithm:
Quote
***column A1 to A11 belong to TEAM1
***column A13 to A23 belong to TEAM2[/i]
counterteam1 = 0;
counterteam2 = 0;
sumteam1 = 0;
sumteam2 = 0;

Ask QUESTION1 *** I will personalize it by myself
Will receive input(s) of a number between 1 to 23.
if Input = 0 then terminate the question.
Keep asking for inputs until I give 0.
Inputs are the cell I do not want to be read by the next two for cycles (delete the content of the cell for example).

for (reads cells from A1 to A11) *** REMEMBER TO EXCLUDE THE CELLS GIVEN BY QUESTION1
  if (Ai = Por or Ds or Dc or Dd or MCc or DsCs or DdCd or DdCdDsCs or DsDc or DdDc or DsDdDc)
     then do the calc (sumteam1 = sumteam1 + Di)  and (counter1 = counter1 + 1);
      
for (reads cell from A13 to A23)
  if (Ai = Por or Ds or Dc or Dd or MCc or DsCs or DdCd or DdCdDsCs or DsDc or DdDc or DsDdDc)
     then do the calc (sumteam2 = sumteam2 + Di) and (counter2 = counter2 + 1);

if counterteam1 - counterteam2 is positive, add 5 to sumteam2 for every integer of difference.
if counterteam1 - counterteam2 is negative, add 5 to sumteam1 for every integer of difference.
example: counterteam1 - counterteam2 = 2, => sumteam2 = sumteam2 + (5*2)
                counterteam1 - counterteam2 = -1, => sumteam1 = sumteam 1+ (5*1)
               counterteam1 - counterteam2 = 3, => sumteam2 = sumteam2 + (5*3)


print sumteam1
print sumteam2
print sumteam1 - sumteam2;


Reply with the code and a BTC address please, it should be easy for a programmer to accomplish the task. The very first user who posts a working script will receive a 0.03 BTC as a reward.

Before replying to this thread you can check if by yourself if the script works by running it with the following xls file (paste the following into a blank spreadsheet)
