Counting Values Across Columns

[frankjh19701]

I have data, numeric values, in mulitple columns and I need to find out
how often values in one column occur with another value in another
column. For example, if in column A there are values 176,2902,331...
and in column B 3134,3415,6345 and so on, but I needed to find find how
often 176 occured with 3415, how would I do that?

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A100=176),--(B1:B100=3415))

and in column B 3134,3415,6345 and so on, but I needed to find find

Thank you. It works only on one row at a time. How can I get it to
search across all of the rows for the presence of the values? The
series runs from left to right across a row in multiple columns, so I
need to find the couplings that could be not just in Column A & B, but
possibly from A to C, or from C & F and so on.

It works across all the rows, not one at a time.

Thank you again for your help, it does work across the entire row. I
didn't realize that until I looked further. My next move is to analyze
if there are more than two occurences repeating with another, i.e. if
176 & 3415 are in the same row, how often does 981 occur? And then,
from there, how do I NOT count a row? Perhaps can I exclude it in the
formula but include the other rows?

 

[Bob Phillips]

Just add another condition

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A100=176),--(B1:B100=3415), --(C1:C100=918))

what do you mean not include a row? Do you mean all rows except say 76?

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A100=176),--(B1:B100=3415), --(C1:C100=918),--(ROW(A1:A100)<>76))

I'm sorry to say it again, but it doesn't work across all of the
columns. I've tried it and the only way it works is if repeat the
formula i.e.
=SUMPRODUCT(--(B1:B2000=5),--(C1:C2000=7))+SUMPRODUCT(--(C1:C2000=5),--(D12000=7))+SUMPRODUCT(--(D12000=5),--(E1:E2000=7))+SUMPRODUCT(--(E1:E2000=5),--(F1:F2000=7))
and I have a lot of data to go through and I was looking to make it
easier. The easy thing is omiting a column, all I have to do is not put
it into this "Augmented" formula. But, there has to be a better way.
Isn't there? Please try it yourself and you will see what I'm talking
about.

 

[Bob Phillips]

I cannot try it myself because the formula that you have given is not the
same as the one that I gave you, and I don't know your data.

Do you want to count where

(B1:B2000=5 AND C1:C2000=7) AND (C1:C2000=5 AND D12000=7) etc.

or

(B1:B2000=5 AND C1:C2000=7) OR( C1:C2000=5 AND D12000=7) etc.

Well, maybe I'm saying it wrong. Your original formula only rea
columns A and B. It didn't look into Columns C, D, E, and so on. So
what I did to see where and if I was doing something wrong was to ad
the other columns, as you can see from my previous post. This way, al
of the columns were counted, but only in the manner of B to C, C to D
D to E, and E to F. I was trying to figure out if there is a formul
that could count across all of these rows, from B to F and find, fo
example, how many times 5 appears in a column(In the same row) while
appears in another column(In the same row). I have far too much data to
try to re-construct it here. But, if you input some random numbers into
a spreadsheet, make sure you have some that match up across rows as I
just explained, and run your original formula, you will see that your
original only counts the to columns that are stated in the formula.
