Default Need help with possible formula


I need to find the count of a list of numbers listed in a
column(specific). But where the number exists more than once I need it
to be counted only once. In the example below this formula should
return 4 as the answer. Thanks in advance.

Example:

Column B
23789
24567
23789
14578
09075
23789

One way:

=SUMPRODUCT((B1:B6<"")/COUNTIF(B1:B6,B1:B6&""))
