Formula to Count based in conditions

[Taislin]

Hi... i have a worksheet where in collumn A i have the 4 following variable data:
One
Two
Three
Four

Then in collumn B i have this variable data: 0-0, 0-1, 1-0, 1-1, ........
So, for each variable on A, it may get one from the different variables from B.

I need a formula to count how many One's, Two's, Three's and Four's i have with 0-0 in collumn B.

I collumn C1 i thried the follwing formula to count how many 0-0 i have for 0ne's:

but this only count how many ones exist in A column int that range.
SUMIF would work if i had a new collumn (for example C) where i transform all 0-0 in value 1 (through IF function) and the ordered the follwing:

. But i dont want to add another collumn because in my original it would need a lot of work then to fix other things.

So 'm in need of a formula that combines some approach of SUMIF formula but to count each variable in A that has 0-0 in B. Anyone knows this?
I'm sure its simple, i'm just not getting there.
Thank you.

Use pivot table for that.

Maybe something like this...

=COUNTIFS(A1:A20;"One";B1:B20;"0-0")

@Tony Valko
I took a look at COUNTIFS before i started this thread but when i wrote the formula it didn't nade sense so i dodn't tryed it lol now i wrote it down and pressed enter and do what i need perfectly. lol So... one rule: try before you ask. Dont know why but two conditions in hte way this formula is built did'nt make much sense for what i wanted so i didn't try it and thou the approach was by some kindof mix between countif and sumif and it was that simply really. Thanks for the reply. you solved it.

@oeldere
Thanks for the reply but i really did not want to got through pivot tables. But thanks anyway.

Regards.

I tought (guessed) you would react that way.

If you want your data for all options 0-0, 0-1, 1-0, 1-1, ........
pivot table will do that automatic for you.

You're welcome. Thanks for the feedback!

@oeldere
I only need for 0-0. But i'll keep that in mind. Thank you
