    Measure how far away the last missing value - relative frequency question

    Hi guys,

    I'm examining and mulling over the relative frequency. And I have absolutely no clue, how to solve the following thing.
    For example, I have a sequence with values 1, 2, 3, and 4.
    I would like to measure how far away the last, missing 4th value after any 3 values occured in the sequence. Of course 3 values can be repeating itself, so the measured distance can be varied.

    So, for example, this is is the sequence:
    2 1 2 3 1 4 1 3

    1. After the first 4 values it is clear that the value '4' is the missing value, and the distance is 4 cells.
    2. And then examinig the next value, still the '4' is missing, so at the next cell, the missing value still the '4', and the distance is now 5 cells.
    4. And then the '4' occurs, so examining which is the last one missing value, and that is the value '2', the distance is 3 cells.
    And so on... The missing value and the distance are change as we moving to the next and the next values in the sequence.

    I made an explanatory JPG about this thing and also I attached the excel file.

    Can somebody help me about this one?

    Thank you in advance!
