    What's what I love about excel, there are many ways to do something. This is a very layman's approach but you know what, it does the job for 90% of people! I was looking for something that doesn't require sorting the data set but not gonna hate on this guy for keeping it simple!

    If you want to be able to do this without sorting the information, you can write an if statement where you countif everything above the line you are checking for the same entry above (locking the top cell in the range but not the bottom)

    at 2:50 you selected also the 1st cell where you typed UNIQUE. So you will have every 10th or 11th cell without formula but typed UNIQUE.

    how would you do this on a non sorted list, isn't there just a way to assign value by searching the list without doing a sort?

    hi, sir good day, i have a problem, and i need your help, example in first hour in warehouse inventory one lot there is 32 apples and then next hour its 38, thus if i subtract its 6 and its correct, but what about if the quota is 40 maximum, then the next following hour its 39 and goes back to 5 so the total count is 6, but if i use subtraction the result is negative which is -34 which is wrong. I hope you can assist and help me with this. Thanks.

    Hey Ted, thank you for the video. Aren't Anderson, SC and Anderson IL unique from one another. I think the way you did this suggests both andersons count as 1. Shouldn't Anderson, SC and Anderson IL be counted as two unique cities? This is my biggest problem is trying to figure out unique users when two people have the same last name.

    I realize you are only counting cities; however, some states have cities with same name, which is clear on your spreadsheet right after sorting. Can you please advise how you now count actual unique city/St?

  • @Evolve816
    @Evolve816 3 роки тому +1

    I thought this was actually counting a "Unique" value (not duplicates), not calculating a duplicate value multiple times throughout a range. :(
