The COUNTA function in Google Sheets is a powerful tool that allows users to count the number of cells in a range that contain any type of data, including text, numbers, and logical values. This function is useful for analyzing large sets of data and can be easily applied to any range of cells. By using the COUNTA function, users can quickly and accurately determine the total number of non-empty cells within a specific range. It is a valuable tool for data analysis and can be easily implemented by following a few simple steps in Google Sheets.
DCOUNTA
Counts values, including text, selected from a database table-like array or range using a SQL-like query.
Sample Usage
DCOUNTA(A2:F20,G2,A22:D23)
DCOUNTA(A2:F20,"price",{"Ticker";"Google"})
