I have noticed in a few posts now that -- is used in some of the solutions to
the questions asked eg

=COUNT(--(ROW(1:360)0))

My question is, what does the -- mean?

See http://www.xldynamic.com/source/xld....CT.html#format for a
detailed explanation.

Odd formula you showed, the 0 doesn't seem to do anything.

Bob,

Without the 0 the formula gives 1 as a result, no matter wether it has
1:360 or 1:36.
I would say in all cases it does nothing, but what causes the 1 as a result?

The link you gave explained the question thanks.

The formula itself was just an example taken from another post elsewhere in
the forum, it wasn't necessarily a correct formula.

It's an array formula Jack, and it retunes 360 with or without 0 as long as
you array enter it.
