Examples

The table in this example is used to illustrate all variations of the COUNT function, including COUNTIF.
The information is not meaningful, but does illustrate what type of arguments each variation of
COUNT includes in the function result.

=COUNTIF(A1:E1, “>0”) returns 5, as all cells in the range have a value greater than zero.
=COUNTIF(A3:E3, “>=100”) returns 3, as all three numbers are greater than 100 and the two text
values are ignored in the comparison.
=COUNTIF(A1:E5, “=amet”) returns 2, as the test string “amet” appears twice in the range.
=COUNTIF(A1:E5, “=*t”) returns 4, as a string ending in the letter “t” appears four times in the range.
