How to count the matched values?
 

Does anyone have any suggestion on how to count the matched values?

There is a list of values under column A & B
[Column A] 1,5,6,8,9,10,3,20
[Column B] 6,4,9

I would like to count the number of matched value between both columns, but
I would like to set an range [+/- 1] for each values in column B. The set
value 1 is inputed in cell D1. Such as 4 will not be found in column A, but
after the range applied to value 4, if any number is found in column A
between 3 [4-1] and 5 [4+1], then it should belong to matched value.
The matched values are 6, 4 and 9, and it will return 3 in cell C1.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to do it?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions

How to count the matched values?
 

Why isn't it 6, i.e.. matching 5,6,8,9,10 and 3?

[Column B] 6,4,9

Because I would like to count the number of matched values on column B
rather than on column A.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thank you for any suggestions

Hi,

Try this:

=MATCH(B1:B3,A1:A8)

the range can be changed
enter as an array formula: hold Ctrl and Shift and then hit Enter

Thanks,
