I want the sum of values in a column. However I wish to ignore cells which do not contain a formula. I tried
=SUMIF(A1:A10, ISFORMULA(A1:A10))
But that did not work
if its a small range you can do:
=SUM(FILTER(A1:A10, {ISFORMULA(A1); ISFORMULA(A2); ISFORMULA(A3);
ISFORMULA(A4); ISFORMULA(A5); ISFORMULA(A6);
ISFORMULA(A7); ISFORMULA(A8); ISFORMULA(A9); ISFORMULA(A10)})
This way might work for you.
I added a column with the following formula, which unfortunately also doesn't work as an arrayformula. But if you put this at the top of your column, beside the one you want to sum, and double click the "drag down" blue square on the bottom right corner of the cell, it will fill all the way down, provided you have no blank rows. Dragging down also works obviously.
=IFNA(FORMULATEXT(A1),0)
This creates a column of zeroes and text formulas, which you can use as a filter for your SUMIF formula, as follows: (assumes data column is A1:A30, helper column is B1:B30. SUMIF is in C1)
=SUMIF(B1:B30,"=0",A1:A30)
Let me know if this is useful, or not.

So, I have a formula graciously shared by someone here that works amazing in highlighting cells in a column that contains letters from K to Z, excluding RR. Here it is below...
=REGEXMATCH(E5:E,"[K-Z]")*(REGEXMATCH(E5:E,"RR")=FALSE)
But, I'm trying to accomplish the same thing with an IF formula (not conditional formatting), where if a cell in column E contains a letter from K-Z, it will display the green checkbox, and if not, display the red down arrow. I'm not sure exactly how to exclude RR again in the equation. Here's the formula I'm trying to get to work...
={"OL";ARRAYFORMULA(IF(E5:E="",,if(REGEXMATCH(E5:E,"K|L|M|N|O|P|Q|R|S|T|U|V|W|X|Y|Z"),"✅","🔻")))}
The formula works except it includes cells containing RR, I guess because R is in there? But I want to exclude cells containing RR.
Here's a Google Sheet that contains the formula I'm currently using.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
I left a new sheet ("Erik Help") with a formula in B1 that somewhat follows the form of your original formula there, since that seems to be something you understand. All I did was add another outer IF to rule out instances of "RR" up front:
={"OL";ARRAYFORMULA(IF(A2:A="",,IF(A2:A="RR","🔻",IF(REGEXMATCH(A2:A,"[K-Z]"),"✅","🔻"))))}
use:
={"OL"; INDEX(IF(
REGEXMATCH(E5:E,"[K-Z]")*(REGEXMATCH(E5:E,"RR")=FALSE),
"✅", "🔻"))}
SECOND IMAGE CLICK NUMBER 1 I Want To Transpose Row Value Range A2:A50 To Column CZ2 To BC2. Formula Should Be Given IN CZ2. AND VALUE SHOULD GET IN REVERSE OR LEFT COLUMNS.[First IMAGE Click Number 2] 2. If I Give Transpose (AO2:AO50) In CZ2 it Will go range from CZ2 To EW2. I Want Transpose in Reverse Columns. If I Increase Row Value AO2:AO60 It Should Flow Towards Left From CZ2 To AS2. I Mean Transpose Should work towards Left Side Columns. Its Ok with any other formula If Not Transpose. Hope My Question is Understandable. Someone Help Me Out. Thank You In Advance.
It's not clear why you would want to do this. However, the end goal can be achieved by placing the following formula in cell B2 (not CZ2):
=ArrayFormula(IFERROR(VLOOKUP(COLUMNS(B1:1)-COLUMN(B1:1)+ROW(A2)+1,{ROW(A2:A),A2:A},2,FALSE)))
Try it and you'll see what I mean.
The formula is written to be flexible. So if you add or subtract data from A2:A, the value in A2 will always be in Row 2 of the last column to the right in the sheet; and all other values will work backward from there.
If you always want to start to backward progression in Column CZ and Column CZ is not (or may not always be) your rightmost column, you can use this version:
=ArrayFormula(IFERROR(VLOOKUP(COLUMN(CZ1)-COLUMN(B1:CZ1)+ROW(A2)+1,{ROW(A2:A),A2:A},2,FALSE)))
Just understand that, if you don't have columns at least through Column CZ, this formula will fail to work as expected.
I recommend using the first formula I supplied above, since it will always work, no matter how many columns there are, filling backward as far as to the formula column (B2) as needed.
Understand also that if you have more than 103 rows of data in A2:A, that would be more than could fit between B2 and CZ2; so only the first 103 would be displayed.
ADDENDUM (after reading first two comments below):
The principle is the same if you want to run results from "CZ to BC"; only in this case, you want to limit the results to no more than 50.
Place the following formula in BC2:
=ArrayFormula(IFERROR(VLOOKUP(SEQUENCE(1,50,ROW(A2)+50-1,-1),{ROW(A2:A),A2:A},2,FALSE)))
To reiterate, you cannot run formulas that will fill or columns backward. (Even if the sheet is set to right-to-left font with Column A appearing at the far right, the formula is still filling A-Z according to that setup.) However, if you know that you want a 50-column range reserved and you want the answers to go backward, this can still be achieved by placing the formula in the first of the 50 columns rather than the last, as I have proposed above.
I have been working on sheet where i always apply SUM manual by selecting the each cell separately.
There are multiple sheets where i SUM manually with similar headers that are available in Col"A".
I just want to make SUM formula dynamic.
when it will become dynamic i will drag it from left to right and formula will give SUM result.
I have tried with IF but could not make it and i am sure its not just IF that could make it.
use:
=SUM(FILTER(B5:B, REGEXMATCH($A5:$A, TEXTJOIN("|", 1, $L2:$L))))
I'm trying to count the number of empty cells that exist in a column between each non-empty cell but haven't been able to work out how.
Using this, I'm also trying to find the largest "empty distances" and locate the cell in the center of these distances.
The sheet I'm working with lists a set of marker colors and denotes the ones that are owned out of the full set of colors. I'm trying to find the largest ranges of missing colors and then find the colors in the middle of those ranges in order to find a handful of markers that would best help to fill out the spectrum.
Columns 1-6 are information- Column 7 marks whether the color is owned:
I may have an answer that helps you.
I could only get it to work using a helper column, but someone may know how to eliminate that requirement.
The helper column creates an array, basically listing the row numbers of the rows that have an "x" in your column B.
The main formula then measures the gap between each of these listed row numbers. It also checks the gap before the first "x", and after the last "x". Note that I have the data starting on row 2, which complicates the formula, but makes the sample sheet clearer - this can easily be changed to row 1 if you prefer.
={F2-1;
query(ArrayFormula(if(isnumber(F3:F),F3:F-F2:F-1,"")),
"select Col1 where Col1 > 0",0);
counta(A2:A)-indirect("F"&COUNTA(F$2:F))}
See a sample sheet here:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/19QUFGRqTT6BqOsBrEBpTIxQCeNdRa5mzXhxQpCZ8sV4/edit?usp=sharing
Then I used a second formula to calculate the max gap between "x"s, (or before the first or after the last x).
Note that calculating the midpoint of the gaps, and doing a lookup of the corresponding mid-point colour, is something that can be added to this answer, if you share a sample copy of your sheet and share it for editing.
Let me know if this helps. I'll add more explanation to describe what the formula is doing tomorrow.
And I'll provide a second tab with the formulas adjusted to work with data beginning on row 1.
You can also get the lengths of the gaps using Frequency:
=ArrayFormula(frequency(if((B1:B20<>"X")*(A1:A20<>""),row(B1:B20)),if((B1:B20="X")*(A1:A20<>""),row(B1:B20))))
but finding the centres of the gaps and allowing for equal-sized gaps is more difficult.
This should find the position of the "X" at the end of the longest gap:
=ArrayFormula(
sum(frequency(if((B1:B20<>"X")*(A1:A20<>""),row(B1:B20)),
if((B1:B20="X")*(A1:A20<>""),row(B1:B20)))*(sequence(countif(B1:B20,"X")+1,1)<=
match(max(frequency(if((B1:B20<>"X")*(A1:A20<>""),row(B1:B20)),
if((B1:B20="X")*(A1:A20<>""),row(B1:B20)))),frequency(if((B1:B20<>"X")*(A1:A20<>""),row(B1:B20)),
if((B1:B20="X")*(A1:A20<>""),row(B1:B20))),0)))+
countif(sequence(countif(B1:B20,"X")+1,1),"<="&
match(max(frequency(if((B1:B20<>"X")*(A1:A20<>""),row(B1:B20)),
if((B1:B20="X")*(A1:A20<>""),row(B1:B20)))),frequency(if((B1:B20<>"X")*(A1:A20<>""),row(B1:B20)),
if((B1:B20="X")*(A1:A20<>""),row(B1:B20))),0))
)
and then it should just be a case of working backwards from there to the centre of the longest gap. However the formula needs further refinement to deal with the cases
(1) Where the longest gap is after the last "X"
(2) Where there is a tie for the longest gap
(3) Where there is a need to list the longest, second longest, third longest gap etc.
I am using google sheets to make a spread sheet and do some simple math, I figured how to do the summing but the problem is that I have about 180 rows of data and want to avoid, if possible, the need to make a formula for every single pair of data. Here is the simple code that I have:
=SUM(AG4:AG5)
So I am writing this code in this case in AH4 and is always the same relative placement to the values I want to add. I want the sum of the two numbers one column to the left and the current row and a row under that. Is there any way to make it so that the same formula can be used over and over instead of typing each one out. Maybe some way to make the formula look one column to the left take that number and add it to the cell one column to the left and one row down?
Thanks for any help you can provide.
You can use the ARRAYFORMULA function to apply a formula to multiple rows. It does not like some functions, though, and SUM() is one of them. So we need to use a different method to add the numbers. In this case, we just use AG4 + AG5. To apply the formula to all the rows in the spreadsheet we do a little more. Here is the formula, which would be placed in cell AG3 provided that is where the formula should start adding items.
=ARRAYFORMULA( IF( ISBLANK( AG3:AG),, AG2:AG + AG3:AG))
The IF ISBLANK AG3:AG) causes the formula to be applied to every row from row 3 to the last row in the sheet. ISBLANK will return FALSE on any row we want to work on so we provide nothing to teh TRUE portion of the IF statement. Note that I did not put "" in for the TRUE portion as that actually places a value in the row and can cause problems with other formulas. Since we are placing this in cell AG3 the addition will increment adding the row above to the current row.
EDIT from Comments
Placing this in cell AH2 will get you what you want:
=ARRAYFORMULA( IF( ISBLANK( AG2:AG),, IF(iseven( ROW(AG2:AG)),AG2:AG + AG3:AG,)))
Taking it a step farther, placing this in cell AH1 will label the header row for you and keep the formula out of the data rows. This has the advantage of allowing rows to be inserted above row 2.
=ARRAYFORMULA( IF(ROW(AH1:AH) = 1, "Total", IF( ISBLANK( AG1:AG),, IF(iseven( ROW(AG1:AG)),AG1:AG + AG2:AG,))))
The explanation is similar to above, only minor changes were made.
NOTE: The rest of column AH (below the formula) should not have any other manually entered data, so you will have to delete your formulas.
