COUNTA

Counts the non-empty values in the list of arguments.

Syntax:

COUNTA(value1; value2; ... value30)

value1 to value30 are up to 30 values or ranges representing the values to be counted.

Example:

COUNTA(B1:B3)

where cells B1, B2, B3 contain 1.1, =NA(), apple returns 3, because none of the cells in B1:B3 are empty.

COUNTA(2; 4; "dog")

returns 3, because 2, 4 and "dog" are all numbers or text.

COUNTA(D1)

where cell D1 contains ="", returns 1, because "" is a string (although of zero length).
