COUNT function:
The COUNT function counts the number of cells that contain numbers, and counts numbers
within the list of arguments. Use the COUNT function to get the number of entries in a number
field that is in a range or array of numbers. For example, you can enter the following formula to
count the numbers in the range [Link] =COUNT(A1:A20). In this example, if five of the cells in
the range contain numbers, the result is 5.
COUNTA function:
The COUNTA function counts cells containing any type of information, including error values
and empty text (""). For example, if the range contains a formula that returns an empty string,
the COUNTA function counts that value. The COUNTA function does not count empty cells.
COUNTBLANK function:
Use the COUNTBLANK function, one of the Statistical functions, to count the number of empty
cells in a range of cells.
