Under column A, there is a list of numbers
11,23,42,32,63,45,76,34,56,34,67,87,45,55,67,65,43 ,45,23,66,...
If any number in column A is the first 6 large numbers, then return 1 in B
column related to the same row.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions

You can enter this array formula in B1:B6 range:

=LARGE($A:$A,{1;2;3;4;5;6})

Replace the semicolons with columns, and you can use the same formula
in B1:G1 range:

=LARGE($A:$A,{1,2,3,4,5,6})

This depends on the list separator setting in your regional settings.
