Count all items in a list without repeated values
I want to count items in a list in excel but I don't want repeated values to be counted twice, what can I do? Please help!
=SUM(IF(COUNTIF(range, range)=1,1,0))
CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER.
It's not working :(
Thank you though :)
it's giving me an erroneous answer. I know that because I used the =unique()function to show the values that don't repeat over the list and then counted those values.
This is what i want to achieve:
I have a list of people but that list has some repeated names, so I want to count how many people I have on that list without counting the repeated ones.

Welcome to the forum
in your haste to solve your problem, you probably missed the yellow banner advising how to get answers faster by posting a sheet ?
Please take a moment to read it and attach a sheet accordingly.
Thanks you for helping us help you
=SUMPRODUCT(1/COUNTIF(A1:A10,A1:A10))
change A1:A10 to your data range
How do I count the number of items in a cell separated by commas i.e. cell A1 (goat, sheep, deer) and cell B1 is 3 the COUNT/number of items in cell A separated by comma, thank you . . .
A B
1 goat, sheep, deer 3
Did you try a pivot table?

English is not my native language sorry for errors
