Hi Pierre, do you know the provenance of this meme? If you made it, do you mind if I or a journal reproduces it or makes a derivative work? Thanks

Completely unclear what you aim to do. Please provide example data and desired output. Do you have programming experience of any kind?

Excel is not the right tool for the job. If you're new to bioinformatics, you should probably get acquainted with some of the tools available. Can you reformulate the question stating what format the data is in and what you're trying to achieve. Someone will then point you in the right direction.
