Count the number of occurrence on a google sheet cell - google-sheets

I am trying to count the number of occurrence on a cell but it doesn't seem to work.So for instance i have dumy_data sheet which contains the dummy data that i want to count. On another sheet test is where i want to show to results.
so i did something like this ={COUNTIF(SPLIT(dumy_data!$A$2:$A$13,","),A2)} but i get zero as the number of occurrence for lucy ken. The result suppose to be 2 as the number of occurrence not 0. Also number of occurrence of Ben should be 3

try:
=INDEX(QUERY(FLATTEN(SPLIT(TEXTJOIN(",", 1, dumy_data!A2:A), ",")),
"select Col1,count(Col1) group by Col1 label count(Col1)''"))

feels like a much simpler way would be to just use arrayformula around your initial formula idea:
=ARRAYFORMULA(COUNTIF(SPLIT(dumy_data!$A$2:$A$13,","),A2))

How to make an arrayformula count values by row?

I have tried many approaches but I can't seem to figure out a solution to a fairly simple problem with an array formula it seems:
I have a sheet where I get results of individual results of runs of a certain scientific experiment by row.
Next, I'd like to count the occurrence of each output value. Output values can be a number from 1 to 10 so I'd like to individually count how many times the output has been per value.
Also, I'd be then summing up how many individual outputs have been generated in total. So I'd be counting the number of unique outputs within a row.
Now my issue is that when using Arrayformula the way I normally use it it doesn't work because it would count and sum up everything for the whole Matrix specified. However, I just want the current row to be counted. I tried using ROW to get there, but i failed.
I also tried some things like =ARRAYFORMULA(SUMIF(IF(COLUMN(B1:F1),ROW(B2:F5)),ROW(B2:F5),B2:F5)) to understand how to apply the logic, but I fail to get it working as COUNTIF version if itself.
Test Sheet
Any help and ideas would be highly appreciated!
in H2 use:
=INDEX(MMULT(IF(INDIRECT("B2:F"&MAX((ROW(A2:A)*(A2:A<>""))))=""; 0; 1);
FLATTEN(COLUMN(B:F)^0)))
in J2 use:
=INDEX(ARRAY_CONSTRAIN(QUERY(QUERY({IFERROR(SPLIT(FLATTEN({ROW(A2:A)&"×"&B2:F}); "×"));
{SEQUENCE(10)*9^9\SEQUENCE(10)}};
"select count(Col1),Col1 where Col2 is not null group by Col1 pivot Col2");
"where Col11 < 100000 offset 1"; 0); 9^9; 10))
update:
H1:
={"Total No. of outcomes"; ARRAYFORMULA(IFNA(VLOOKUP(ROW(A2:A);
QUERY(SPLIT(UNIQUE(FLATTEN(ROW(B2:F)&"×"&B2:F)); "×");
"select Col1,count(Col1) where Col2 is not null group by Col1"); 2; 0)))}
J1:
=INDEX({"Occurence of "&SEQUENCE(1; 10); ARRAY_CONSTRAIN(QUERY(QUERY({IFERROR(
SPLIT(FLATTEN({ROW(A2:A)&"×"&B2:F}); "×")); {SEQUENCE(10)*9^9\SEQUENCE(10)}};
"select count(Col1),Col1 where Col2 is not null group by Col1 pivot Col2");
"where Col11 < 999999 offset 1"; 0); 9^9; 10)})
demo sheet
Just an afterthought to this, I think the accepted answer is optimal but I did wonder if you could solve it using only countifs. The answer is yes, but you have to force the array arguments to be the same size and shape otherwise you get the 'array arguments different sizes' error so in J2:
=ArrayFormula(countifs(B2:F6,mod(sequence(5,10,0),10)+1,row(B2:F6)+B2:F6-B2:F6,int(sequence(5,10,0)/10)+2))
Note the the total number of outcomes column gives the number of different outcomes using the formula below in H2:
=ArrayFormula(mmult(sign(J2:S6),sequence(10,1,1,0)))

Count/sum occurrences of word in cell in column - Google Sheets

I have two columns of text/abbreviations i want to summarize in a (or two respectively) tables.
Example:
Column 1: SiteScopeInput
Swap_G09+Remove_U21+Rollout_L07+Swap_L08+Swap_L18+Rollout_L21+Rollout_N35
Remove_U21+Rollout_L07+Swap_L08+Swap_L18+Rollout_L21+Rollout_N35
Swap_G09+Rollout_L07+Swap_L08+Swap_L09+Swap_L18+Rollout_L21+Swap_L26+Rollout_N35
Swap_G09+Remove_U21+Rollout_L07+Swap_L08+Swap_L18+Rollout_L21+Rollout_N35
Here I'd like to summarize how many times words occure - for example:
Swap_G09
Remove_U1
Rollout_L07
and so on.
I've tried a combination of
ArrayFormula, LEN and REGEXREPLACE
but my beginner mind can't wrap around this task.
Any tips? Thanks!
If you want to treat Swap_G09 etc. as a separate word, then a combination of split, flatten and query should do it:
=ArrayFormula(query(FLATTEN(split(filter(A:A,A:A<>""),"+")),"select Col1,count(Col1) where Col1 is not null group by Col1 label Col1 'Word'"))

How can I separate a column into multiple columns based on values?

I have searched on a lot of pages but I cannot find a solution to my problem except in reverse order. I have simplified what I do, but I have a query that comes looking for information in my data sheet. Here there are 3 columns, the date, the amount and the source.
I would like, with a query function, to be able to make different columns which counts the information of column C based on the values of its cells per month, like this
I'm okay with the start of the formula
=QUERY(A2:C,"select month(A)+1, sum(B), count(C) where A is not null group by month(A)+1")
But as soon as I try a little different things by putting 2 query together in an arrayformula, obviously the row count doesn't match as some minus are 0 for some sources.
Do you have a solution for what I'm trying to do? Thank you in advance :)
Solution:
It's not possible in Google Query Language to have a single query statement that has one result grouped by one column and another result grouped by another.
The first two columns can be like this:
=QUERY(A2:C,"select month(A)+1, sum(B) where A is not null group by month(A)+1 label month(A)+1 'Month', sum(B) 'Amount'")
To create the column labels for the succeeding columns, use in the first row, in my example, I1:
=TRANSPOSE(UNIQUE(C2:C))
Then from cell I2, enter this:
=COUNTIFS(arrayformula(month($A$2:$A)),$G2,$C$2:$C,I$1)
Then drag horizontally and vertically to apply to the entire table.
Results:
try:
=INDEX({
QUERY({MONTH(A2:A), B2:C},
"select Col1,sum(Col2) where Col2 is not null group by Col1 label Col1'month',sum(Col2)'amount'"),
QUERY({MONTH(A2:A), B2:C, C2:C},
"select count(Col3) where Col2 is not null group by Col1 pivot Col4")})

Summing values based on multiple criteria. Columns are different sizes

I have a Google Sheet (Test Sheet 2) with two sheets in it, Sheet 1 and Sheet 2. Sheet 2 is where all of the data is and I need to get the sums of the counts of that column based on three criteria into sheet 1 column C. The name, week, year and count need to match up. I used the formula
=arrayformula(iferror(vlookup(A2:A&2020&B2:B, {Sheet2!A2:A&Sheet2!B2:B&Sheet2!C2:C, Sheet2!D2:D}, 2, FALSE)))
but that only works for unique rows. In the example sheet I am providing, the formula works well for Bill, Lisa, Katie and Jon because they all have one value for 'count' from Sheet2 when the parameters of name, week and year match up. But Mike has two rows matching the criteria. This formula returns the first match which is 3. The other value is 4 so I would like the count in Sheet1 to show 7 instead of 3. I need it to add them up.
I also tried to use sumifs but the columns are two different sizes so that didn't work.
Any idea? I did try to combine sumif with the above formula but that did not work either.

Solution with ARRAYFORMULA and SUMIF
If you need to use ARRAYFORMULA to improve the performances you can use this tweak of the SUMIF statement: basically you can concatenate the conditions to make them create a single AND condition.
This would be a possible solution for the formula in your comment:
=ARRAYFORMULA(SUMIF(Sheet2!A2:A&Sheet2!B2:B,A2:A&2020,Sheet2!D2:D))
Solution with SUMIFS
If you are looking for a solution with the SUMIFS formula you can use this:
SUMIFS('sum_range', 'criteria_range', condition, ['criteria_range_2', condition_2])
In your case this will translate to:
=SUMIFS(Sheet2!D2:D, Sheet2!A2:A, A2, Sheet2!B2:B, 2020)
In this case the ranges dimensions won't affect the formula execution.
Just drag this formula for the Sheet1 table column and you will get the results. The drawback is that you cannot use ARRAYFORMULA with SUMIFS. Performance wise, if you have a lot of rows in the Sheet1 I suggest using the ARRAYFORMULA solution, since this will trigger a lot of formula calls instead of just one.
Try this query()
=query(Sheet2!A:D, "Select A, C, sum(D) where B = 2020 group by A, C label C 'Week', sum(D) 'Count'", 1)
UPDATED:
If you really need to use vlookup in arrayformula() you can always ise the query (that deals with the summing) as the lookup range. In the spreadsheet I used
=ArrayFormula(if(len(A2:A), iferror(vlookup(A2:A&year(D2:D)&E2:E, query({Sheet2!A:A&Sheet2!B:B&Sheet2!C:C, Sheet2!D:D}, "Select Col1, sum(Col2) where Col1 <>'' group by Col1", 1), 2, 0)),) )
and see if that helps?

Google Sheet formula to find the minimal sum of pairs in array

I'm looking for solution for my problem. I have a sheet to summarize lap times for some competition. We make 3 laps in each qualification. We are qualifying to finals by 2 best laps one after another. So we sum first and second lap or second and third lap and then choose the smallest one sum. I've managed to get array of pairs and filter out empty cells (run not finished). Number of pairs may vary form 1 to 20.
Now is my question. How to find the smallest sum of pairs from my array in one elegant formula?
Here is my sample sheet: example sheet
=QUERY(QUERY({A17:B17;B17:C17;D17:E17;E17:F17;G17:H17;H17:I17};
"select Col1+Col2
where Col1 is not NULL
and Col2 is not NULL");
"select min(Col1)
label min(Col1)''")
I know this isn't exactly your question and fair play if it gets marked down, but in your quest for an 'elegant formula', I was wondering if there was a more general way to get the pairs in the first place.
You can do it with by using two ranges offset by one cell together with the mod of the column number:
=ArrayFormula(query(
query({transpose({A17:H17;B17:I17;mod(column(A17:H17),3)})},"select Col1+Col2 where Col1 is not null and Col2 is not null and Col3>0")
,"select min(Col1) label min(Col1) ''"))
