Default counting x instances of a string across columns...



A B C D
Yes No Yes Yes
No No No Yes
No Yes Yes No
Yes Yes No No


What I'm trying to do is count the cases where there is one "Yes" (or
maybe 2 or 3 yeses) in any of the columns, with one formula for the
entire array. So to count rows with one yes, there would be 1. With 3
yeses, there would be 1 row. With 2 yeses, there would be 2 rows.

Can't figure out how to do this without using a helper column, any
help is appreciated..
