The COUNTA function returns the number of cells in a column that are not blank. That is, it counts not only numeric values, texts, and dates like the COUNT function, but it also counts logical values.
Syntax
COUNTA(
column
)
Parameters
- column: Column whose values you want to count.

Additional Information
If the function does not find any rows to count, it returns a blank. When there are rows, but none meet the expected requirements, the function returns 0.
Examples
