First empty cell google script - google-sheets

I'm making a pointboard for Rummicum and the first row contains heading with players names in cells A1:D1. The pointboard is for 4 players and the first point goes to cell A2 and according to the rules the loosers get minus points and the winner get the positive sum of the loosers.
I use row E to sum up the minus points and then I want a script that checks witch of the 4 cells A2:D2 is empty and set the value in cell E2 into that empty cell.

how could I count minus cells in a column excluding the last one?

I want to count on another sheet that how many people have a minus balance. Of course, I should use COUNTIF, but how could I dynamically narrow the range from C2 to the second last non-blank cell(because there's a chance for the total balance to be minus, it should be excluded)?

Try below formula-
=COUNTIFS(C2:INDEX(C2:C,COUNTA(C2:C)-1),"<0")
Here C2:INDEX(C2:C,COUNTA(C2:C)-1) will return a array of values as well cell reference from C2 to last second non empty cell in column C (Assume you do not have any blank rows inside data). If you have blank row, then you have to use different approach. See this post by #TheMaster
COUNTA(C2:C) will count all non blank cells in C column then minus 1 from that count to make it second non empty cell till down to up.
And then apply COUNTIFS() function.

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.

How to count groups of cells with specific first and last characters wrapping those groups in Google Sheets?

I'm trying to count how many cells are included in specific groups of cells with specific first and last character as counting criteria.
With separate counts per group.
Here's what the end result should look like:
So that for each group of cells beginning and ending with the character "#" as first and last character,
the result should sum the cells/rows from the 1st cell to the last cell of that group.
So that for each group of cells beginning and ending with the character "^" as first and last character,
the result should sum the cells/rows from the 1st cell to the last cell of that group.
But the formula should exclude from count any group of cells not beginning and ending with the characters "^" or "#" as first and last character.
And ideally, display the sum result on the last cell of each group to the left (as in the B column on the above screenshot).
Up to now, I've only come up with the =ROWS() function to manually count the cells of those groups. But it is tedious.
For example, to deal with the screenshot example I would do:
=ROWS(C3:C5) (with 3 as result in cell B5)
Then
=ROWS(C8:C10) (with 3 as result in cell B10)
Nothing in cell B15
Then
=ROWS(C23:C25) (with 3 as result in cell B25)
Etc.
How to get these results with a single formula over the whole B column?

In the meantime I've found this post:
Sum vertically until empty cell on Google Sheets
Which answers partially the count part of my post.
It got me thinking and I figured these 3 steps.
1st step: count all the cells with len.
=IF(len(C2),1,"")
2nd Step: Adapt the formula:
IF(C2="",SUM(C3:INDEX(C3:C,MATCH(TRUE,(C3:C=""),0))),"")
Found on the post above, to this (taking into account more than one intermediary blank row (D1, D2, D3, D4, etc):
=IFS(OR(AND(D1="",D2="",D3="",D4=""),AND(D1="",D2="",D3=""),AND(D1="",D2=""),D1=""),SUM(D2:INDEX(D2:D,MATCH(TRUE,(D2:D=""),0))),TRUE,"")
Step 3: Moving down the step 2 formula into cell F4 and dragging down from there to have the results at the last cell of each groups (instead of on the cell above each group as with the original formula location on E2)
Remaining questions:
How to specify the sum function to operate on the specific characters ("#" and "^" on the example) basis instead of on the len Function of cell criteria?
How to change the zero cells results to blanks?
How to combine the 2/3 steps formulas into a single step formula?

4:How to count groups of cells with specific first and last characters wrapping those groups in Google Sheets?
Alternatively, following this post's answer by #shawnrad:
Count rows with not empty value
I used the LEFT and RIGHT functions here:
=IF((OR(LEFT(C1,1)="#",RIGHT(C1,1)="#",LEFT(C1,1)="^",RIGHT(C1,1)="^")),1,"")
to come to these results:
=IF(OR(COUNTIF(C2,"#*"),COUNTIF(C2,"*#"),COUNTIF(C2,"^*"),COUNTIF(C2,"*^")),1,"")
How to then apply the SUM function or any other function to sum the cells/rows per intervals between (and including) the returned results of the last function?

How to count rows between 2 non empty cells with their intermediary empty cells in Google Sheets?

I'm trying to count each rows of empty cells between two non-empy cells and adding the upper non empty-cell count (or the lower non-empty cells count) to the result when the empty cells/rows numbers are variable and irregular in this manner:
A1 Empty
A2 Non-empty
A3 Empty
A4 Empty
A5 Empty
A6 Empty
A7 Non-empty
(with A2 to A5 being irregular — could be any number of intermediary empty rows/cells — i.e. 10, 2, 30, 5, etc., and variable — could be located in any location within Column A)
The result should return as follow:
=IFS(
AND(A2="",A3=""),"",
AND(A2="",A3<>""),"",
AND(A2<>"",A3<>""),ROWS(A2),
AND(A2<>"",A3=""),ROWS(A2:UP TO NEXT NON-EMPTY ROW BENEATH (NOT COMPRISED (or minus the next non-empty row(-1)))
How do we program Google Sheets to count rows "UP TO NEXT NON-EMPTY ROW BENEATH (NOT COMPRISED (or minus the next ono empty row(-1)) when the emppty intermediary rows' count is variable/unknown for each occurence and irregular/can be any number of intremediary rows?
I have this data as example:
So far, I've come up with this partial solution:
=IFS(AND(A2="",A3=""),"", AND(A2="",A3<>""),"", AND(A2<>"",A3<>""),ROWS(A2), AND(A2<>"",A3=""),ROWS(A2:UP TO NEXT NON-EMPTY ROW BENEATH (NOT COMPRISED (or minus the next non-empty row(-1)))))
The expected result should return as follows:

Well I think you can do it a bit more elegantly using a reverse lookup. The idea is to sort the data on descending order of row number, then use a match with -1 as the last parameter, which is equivalent to searching from the end of the data for the next non-blank.
=ArrayFormula(iferror(if(A2:A="","",rows(A2:A)+2-match(row(A2:A)+1,
query(SORT({IF(A2:A<>"",row(A2:A),""),row(A2:A)},2,false),"select Col1"),-1)-row(A2:A)),1))
If you wanted to keep it simple and just use a pull-down formula, an ordinary match is enough:
=ArrayFormula(iferror(if(A2="","",match(true,A3:A<>"",0)),1))
(it still has to be entered as an array formula because A3:A<>"" is an array of True and False)

I found a solution with a Monster formula but with simple iterative logics, and up to 50 intermediary blanks (for more only need to make the formula larger).
What I was lookind for was simply to print the cells/rows count of intermediary empty cells between 2 non-empty cells + adding to the count either the 1st non-empty cell or the last non-empty cell.
So for example if cell A1 and cell A9 have 8 empty cells between them, then return 8+1 (or 10-1).
The logics used is simple:
probe how many possible empty cells there can be between each 2 non-empty cells counting the 1st non-empty as well within column A (in the formula below the possibility is up to 50 empty cells), and for each case return the intermediary rows -1 (the last row).
The formula:
=IFS(AND(A1="",A2=""),"",AND(A1="",A2<>""),"",AND(A1<>"",A2<>""),ROWS(A1),AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3<>""),ROWS(A1:A3)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4<>""),ROWS(A1:A4)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5<>""),ROWS(A1:A5)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6<>""),ROWS(A1:A6)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7<>""),ROWS(A1:A7)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8<>""),ROWS(A1:A8)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9<>""),ROWS(A1:A9)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10<>""),ROWS(A1:A10)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11<>""),ROWS(A1:A11)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12<>""),ROWS(A1:A12)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13<>""),ROWS(A1:A13)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14<>""),ROWS(A1:A14)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",A15<>""),ROWS(A1:A15)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",A15="",A16<>""),ROWS(A1:A16)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",A15="",A16="",A17<>""),ROWS(A1:A17)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",A15="",A16="",A17="",A18<>""),ROWS(A1:A18)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",A15="",A16="",A17="",A18="",A19<>""),ROWS(A1:A19)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",A15="",A16="",A17="",A18="",A19="",A20<>""),ROWS(A1:A20)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",A15="",A16="",A17="",A18="",A19="",A20="",A21<>""),ROWS(A1:A21)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",A15="",A16="",A17="",A18="",A19="",A20="",A21="",A22<>""),ROWS(A1:A22)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",A15="",A16="",A17="",A18="",A19="",A20="",A21="",A22="",A23<>""),ROWS(A1:A23)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",A15="",A16="",A17="",A18="",A19="",A20="",A21="",A22="",A23="",A24<>""),ROWS(A1:A24)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",A15="",A16="",A17="",A18="",A19="",A20="",A21="",A22="",A23="",A24="",A25<>""),ROWS(A1:A25)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",A15="",A16="",A17="",A18="",A19="",A20="",A21="",A22="",A23="",A24="",A25="",A26<>""),ROWS(A1:A26)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",A15="",A16="",A17="",A18="",A19="",A20="",A21="",A22="",A23="",A24="",A25="",A26="",A27<>""),ROWS(A1:A27)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",A15="",A16="",A17="",A18="",A19="",A20="",A21="",A22="",A23="",A24="",A25="",A26="",A27="",A28<>""),ROWS(A1:A28)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",A15="",A16="",A17="",A18="",A19="",A20="",A21="",A22="",A23="",A24="",A25="",A26="",A27="",A28="",A29<>""),ROWS(A1:A29)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",A15="",A16="",A17="",A18="",A19="",A20="",A21="",A22="",A23="",A24="",A25="",A26="",A27="",A28="",A29="",A30<>""),ROWS(A1:A30)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",A15="",A16="",A17="",A18="",A19="",A20="",A21="",A22="",A23="",A24="",A25="",A26="",A27="",A28="",A29="",A30="",A31<>""),ROWS(A1:A31)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",A15="",A16="",A17="",A18="",A19="",A20="",A21="",A22="",A23="",A24="",A25="",A26="",A27="",A28="",A29="",A30="",A31="",A32<>""),ROWS(A1:A32)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",A15="",A16="",A17="",A18="",A19="",A20="",A21="",A22="",A23="",A24="",A25="",A26="",A27="",A28="",A29="",A30="",A31="",A32="",A33<>""),ROWS(A1:A33)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",A15="",A16="",A17="",A18="",A19="",A20="",A21="",A22="",A23="",A24="",A25="",A26="",A27="",A28="",A29="",A30="",A31="",A32="",A33="",A34<>""),ROWS(A1:A34)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",A15="",A16="",A17="",A18="",A19="",A20="",A21="",A22="",A23="",A24="",A25="",A26="",A27="",A28="",A29="",A30="",A31="",A32="",A33="",A34="",A35<>""),ROWS(A1:A35)-1,AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4="",A5="",A6="",A7="",A8="",A9="",A10="",A11="",A12="",A13="",A14="",

Can it be done in a simpler way but still with a single formula?
Thanks a lot for your next input!

In the mean time I did some simplification of my previous Monster formula and learned the ArrayFormula application in the process.
1st I tried to shorten the big blank cells intervals into ranges formulations to see if it still worked.
For example I changed:
AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3="",A4<>""),ROWS(A1:A4)-1,
into
AND(A1<>"",A2:A3="",A4<>""),ROWS(A1:A4)-1,
And it shortened my formula from this:
to this:
But then when pasting the new formula I got a #VALUE! error 'an array value could not be found'.
After further tests, I used the ArrayFormula and it worked by adapting the simple 'ranges' previously used to Arrays:
from this
AND(A1<>"",A2:A3="",A4<>""),ROWS(A1:A4)-1,
into this
AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A3=""),A4<>""),ROWS(A1:A4)-1,
With this final result:
=IFS(AND(A1="",A2=""),"",AND(A1="",A2<>""),"",AND(A1<>"",A2<>""),ROWS(A1),AND(A1<>"",A2="",A3<>""),ROWS(A1:A3)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A3=""),A4<>""),ROWS(A1:A4)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A4=""),A5<>""),ROWS(A1:A5)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A5=""),A6<>""),ROWS(A1:A6)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A6=""),A7<>""),ROWS(A1:A7)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A7=""),A8<>""),ROWS(A1:A8)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A8=""),A9<>""),ROWS(A1:A9)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A9=""),A10<>""),ROWS(A1:A10)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A10=""),A11<>""),ROWS(A1:A11)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A11=""),A12<>""),ROWS(A1:A12)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A12=""),A13<>""),ROWS(A1:A13)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A13=""),A14<>""),ROWS(A1:A14)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A14=""),A15<>""),ROWS(A1:A15)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A15=""),A16<>""),ROWS(A1:A16)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A16=""),A17<>""),ROWS(A1:A17)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A17=""),A18<>""),ROWS(A1:A18)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A18=""),A19<>""),ROWS(A1:A19)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A19=""),A20<>""),ROWS(A1:A20)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A20=""),A21<>""),ROWS(A1:A21)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A21=""),A22<>""),ROWS(A1:A22)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A22=""),A23<>""),ROWS(A1:A23)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A23=""),A24<>""),ROWS(A1:A24)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A24=""),A25<>""),ROWS(A1:A25)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A25=""),A26<>""),ROWS(A1:A26)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A26=""),A27<>""),ROWS(A1:A27)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A27=""),A28<>""),ROWS(A1:A28)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A28=""),A29<>""),ROWS(A1:A29)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A29=""),A30<>""),ROWS(A1:A30)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A30=""),A31<>""),ROWS(A1:A31)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A31=""),A32<>""),ROWS(A1:A32)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A32=""),A33<>""),ROWS(A1:A33)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A33=""),A34<>""),ROWS(A1:A34)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A34=""),A35<>""),ROWS(A1:A35)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A35=""),A36<>""),ROWS(A1:A36)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A36=""),A37<>""),ROWS(A1:A37)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A37=""),A38<>""),ROWS(A1:A38)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A38=""),A39<>""),ROWS(A1:A39)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A39=""),A40<>""),ROWS(A1:A40)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A40=""),A41<>""),ROWS(A1:A41)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A41=""),A42<>""),ROWS(A1:A42)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A42=""),A43<>""),ROWS(A1:A43)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A43=""),A44<>""),ROWS(A1:A44)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A44=""),A45<>""),ROWS(A1:A45)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A45=""),A46<>""),ROWS(A1:A46)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A46=""),A47<>""),ROWS(A1:A47)-1,AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A47=""),A48<>""),ROWS(A1:A48)-1, AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A48=""),A49<>""),ROWS(A1:A49)-1, AND(A1<>"",ArrayFormula(A2:A49=""),A50<>""),ROWS(A1:A50)-1)
New Sheet here

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.
