How do you average values in a row, ignoring any zeros?

=AVERAGE(IF(A1:A100<0,A1:A100))

This is an array formula, so commit with Ctrl-SHift-Enter.

Just an alternative to the typical AVERAGE array formula:

=SUM(1:1)/SUM(COUNTIF(1:1,{"<","*",0})*{1,-1,-1})

Normal caveats with respect to continuity - if there could be positive
and negative values, zero values should be included. If only positive
values should be included in averages, that should be made explicit,
i.e.,

=AVERAGE(IF(A1:D10,A1:D1))
