This method is especially useful when you’re looking to analyze datasets without redundancy. It allows you to get a clear picture of how many different items are present without the noise of repeated entries.

By leveraging unique functions and formulas like this, you can turn Excel into a powerful tool for data analysis and reporting. Stay tuned for more insights and tips to unlock the full potential of your spreadsheets!
