Counting Zeros in a row until encounter first non-zero value

Is there a function, or combination of nested functions to count the number
of zeros in a row up until the first non-zero valued cell?
For Example
0 0 0 0 0 35 0 50 60
0 0 0 0 0 0 40 10 0 0 30
For the First Row I want the function to return the value 6 and the second
row to return the value '7'
I do not want to know the total number of zeros in a row, I want to know the
number of zeros in a row until I encounter the first nonzero cell.
Try the following array formula (commit with CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER):
=MATCH(1,--(A1:K10),0)
That will return the result you specified, but not the answer to your original
question. Subtract one to answer that question.
