Is there a formula that will count the number of terms in a mathematical equation in Google Sheets or Excel?
I use Google Sheets to keep track of how I spend my time at work. One of those tasks is email. I want to know how many times I check my email and how much time it takes out of my day.
Currently if I checked it four times during the day, I enter Email|4 in Column D, and then, e.g. =3+2+5+1 in Column E.
If I want to analyze the cumulative data, the pipe character lets me use a formula to get that "4" out of the cell in D, but I would rather not have to enter it at all.
Is there a formula that will look at the cell in Column E and return the number of terms being added together? So, if E28 is =4+1+2+3+1 it would return "5"?
I will be starting a new job soon and building a new spreadsheet, so I can switch to Excel if that would provide functionality that GSheets doesn't.
try:
=COLUMNS(SPLIT(A1; "+"))
or if your cell is 11:
=COLUMNS(SPLIT(FORMULATEXT(A5), "+"))
