COUNTIFS Function

Available in: Desktop version starting Excel 2007, Online Excel 365, Google Sheets


Function Type:

Statistical


Description:

COUNTIFS function in Excel or Google Sheets counts the number of cells within a range that meets all the criteria.
This is the same with COUNTIF function even with the arguments structure.
The only difference is that COUNTIF is singular while COUNTIFS is plural in terms of criteria.
COUNTIFS can handle multiple criteria.
COUNTIF can only work with 1 criteria.

Me personally, I only use COUNTIFS as it is more flexible when there are more criteria needed to be added in the future.


Function Structure:

=COUNTIFS ( range1, criteria1 , [range2], [criteria2] , ... )


Argument Breakdown:

range1 - The first range to evaluate.

criteria1 - The criteria to use on range1.

[range2] - The second range to evaluate.

  • As it is with square brackets [] it means that it is not mandatory to have, but there can be more

[criteria2] - The criteria to use on range2.

  • As it is with square brackets [] it means that it is not mandatory to have

... - This means that there can be more rangeand criteria arguments added to this function.
