Google Sheets - Auto Increment numbers based on a cell value - google-sheets

I am currently trying to make number increment based on a cell value
For example, if the cell value is 5, then a number increment should appear shows in row by row as
1
2
3
4
5
Anyone has ideas on how to do this?


You need SEQUENCE() function. Try-
=SEQUENCE(B1)
Reference:
SEQUENCE

How to do a simple formula to do constant addition from cell above?

Basically I got a column of number that gets a constant number added to it, like +2 for every cell.
For example:
1
3
5
7
How do I do that in Sheet? I couldn't find a way to use the SUM formula, as I needed to reference the cell above and add +2 to it.

Assuming you want 10 numbers, you could try
=sequence(10, 1, 1, 2)

Repeating cell based on X values on a row and move to the next row and do same process

I have this data and each row contains X row number in a cell, so I want to repeat the email and other values on the row based on the X number in the cell.
so for example, if the X value is 0 I don't want this row to move to the other sheet, but if the value is 4 I want to have to the other sheet 4 times. and then continue with the next rows.
I actually could achieve this but the issue is that I don't know how to make the formula move to the next rows and do the same process.
Link for the sheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VbOyaMfsbS6Yoz9xUqfNkLqmPyzMxd-K97Dc7vywLm0/edit?usp=sharing
Your help is highly appreciated.

I've added this formula in I6 of your sheet:
=ArrayFormula(TRANSPOSE(SPLIT(TEXTJOIN("", 1, REPT(C6:C10&";", D6:D10)), ";")))
See if this is what you are looking for.

Conditional Formatting for three columns range and their sum

My Input:
A B C
5 2 3
5 2 4
I want to conditionally format the row such as if A is not equal to B+C, then the entire row should be highlighted in red. In my case, second row should be highlighted as 5 != 2 + 4.
What I tried is adding a custom formula to the range - A2:C and the formula I tried is:
=A3 <> SUM(B3, C3) and some other ways, but couldn't figure it out.
PS: I want to create this formatting check for the entire column not just for a single row.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks to #Sergey's comment. The working formula is =$A2<>SUM($B2:$C2) for the range A2:C.

How to write a formula that would work in different rows?

I'm trying to make a Google spreadsheet where I want the sum of the values in the row to appear in the AH cell of that row.
The row would be populated with letters like L or X and I'm using COUNTIF to give value to the alphabet characters.
For example,
=COUNTIF(C4:AG4,"X")*9 + COUNTIF(C4:AG4,"L")*12
How can I write the range such that it looks at cells C through AG from the same row the formula is in rather than change it for every row?

You don't need to change the formula, if you write that formula in one cell and then you drag the little square at the bottom right of the cell, excel will automatically change the row number

Just copy downwards:
As you see, the row index changed to 5 automatically.

Use text in a cell as plus and minus

I have a sheet with multiple rows. There is a cell on each row that says "In" and "Out" in a dropdown. Basically this is plus and minus. Next to that I have a cell that that holds an amount.
So it looks like this:
Item 1, In, 10
Item 2, Out, 5
This totals a profit of 5.
How can I with this setup calculate the total profit/loss for all the cells in the sheet depending on multiple in/out rows?

An if formula will calculate the rows and a sum formula will calculate the column.
First make the numbers positive and negative values.
=IF(B2="In",C2,C2*-1)
This formula in 'D2' checks if the value of 'B2' is "In".
If yes then just adds the value of 'C2'.
If no then it multiplies the value of 'C2' by negative one.
Second step is to add up the numbers.
=SUM(D2:D3)
Cell 'D4' sums the column.
