Count row once if it contains "A" - google-sheets

I have four columns of data. I want to count the row once if any of the four cells in each row contains an "A".
Here's a sample sheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10hZuOgdL3Pf3-yLsK1G4DlVIThGR0fWBL_IEMpn5vnY/edit?usp=sharing


You can use
=ArrayFormula(sum(N(mmult(n(regexmatch(B4:E15,"A")),transpose(column(B4:E15)))>0)))
or
=sumproduct(N(mmult(n(regexmatch(B4:E15,"A")),transpose(column(B4:E15)))>0))
to get the row totals and count the ones which are greater than zero.
This is case sensitive.

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.

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

New Sheet here

An if formula for multiple cells in another sheet

I have a google sheet that has 2 sheets, Sheet 1 with info in cells A and B.
I need to add a little formula in sheet 2, to check if any of the cells in sheet 1 column A (numbers) is bigger than the Numbers in column B cells, and then if so, say Yes else NO.
So IF in sheet1 any of the cells in Column A is bigger than in Column B, Then...."YES"

This checks on a row by row basis. If you want to know if ANY row in column A is bigger than in column B, that would be a bit different.
=if(Sheet1!A1>Sheet1!B1,"Yes","No")

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.

Formula to find last value in row and label with Column Top

I'm using Google Spreadsheets. I'll be using this image from a very similar question.
http://i.imgur.com/jqcNW.png [a link]Google Spreadsheet Formula to get last value in a row
Instead of giving the value, I want the Column top to show. So the H column would look something like: 2 1 3 1 4
(The product numbers from Row 1)
If it helps =index(B2:G2;1;counta(B2:G2)) was the answer given to the original question. My values would be words instead of numbers. It'd need to track the last 'Yes' in the row with the column top being dates.

I think this should be easy:
=index($B$1:$G$1;1;counta(B2:G2)) - if you write this to the H2 cell, it should search the "N"th element in the FIRST row ($B$1:$G$1) - where N represents the value of non-empty cells in that row (B2:G2).
You can then populate this H2 formula downwards.
Let me know if this helps.
