Google Sheet importxml - How to retrieve only the 1st value? - 


=iferror(importxml(b1, "//title/text()"),a1)

i'm using google script input above c1 , fill down.

it works fine when there 1 title in each result, returns error when there more 1 :

error array result not expanded because overwrite data in c2

how can limit result first title tag found, or (probably better) modify iferror handle array 'error'?

      =iferror(importxml(b1, "(//title/text())[1]"),a1)

or

     =array_constrain(iferror(importxml(b1, "//title/text()"),a1),1,1)

mark answer, if solves problem.

What is happening when Matlab is starting a "parallel pool"? -

running parallel cpu processes in matlab starts command parpool() according documentation , function: [creates] special job on pool of workers, , [connects] matlab client parallel pool. this function takes bit of time execute, on order of 30 seconds. in other multi-cpu paradigms openmp, parallel execution seems totally transparent -- i've never noticed behavior analogous matlab (granted i'm not experienced parallel programming). so, happening between time parpool() called , when finishes executing? takes long? parallel computing toolbox enables run matlab code in parallel using several different paradigms (e.g. jobs , tasks, parfor , spmd , parfeval , batch processing), , run either locally (parallelised across cores in local machine) or remotely (parallelised across machines in cluster - either 1 own, or 1 in cloud). in of these cases, code run on matlab workers , copies of matlab without interactive desktop. if you're intending run on remo...
