Learn how to automatically reorder numbers in Excel

Here is the formula featured in my video.

=SEQUENCE(COUNTA(C:C)-1)

1. COUNTA(C:C)
Function: COUNTA counts the number of non-empty cells in a specified range.
Range: C:C specifies the entire column C.
Result: This part of the formula returns the total number of non-empty cells in column C.
2. COUNTA(C:C)-1
Operation: Subtracts 1 from the result of COUNTA(C:C).
Purpose: This adjustment is typically made if the first cell in the column (e.g., a header) should not be counted.
3. SEQUENCE(COUNTA(C:C)-1)
Function: SEQUENCE generates a sequence of numbers in an array.
Input: The number of rows the sequence will have is determined by the result of COUNTA(C:C)-1.
Result: This part creates an array of numbers starting from 1 up to COUNTA(C:C)-1.
