Collecting lottery data and need to count how many times a pair of numbers shows up

[TheseStars]

Greetings!

New forum member here and a novice at best at Excel. Could use some help, not able to solve my problem on my own.

---I'm struggling at the moment trying to find the correct formula that will count how many times a pair of numbers are showing up together.

I'm using MS Office 2016 Excel and tracking my states pick 3 lottery results.

I want to count how many times the 2 is showing up with the 0 across a 30 or 31 day period. I want to do this for all 45 pairs.

Columns x, y and z are holding the draw results for the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd position of the results, so my range is of course 30 or 31 sets (depending on month) of 3 digit numbers each in their own cell.

any help would be appreciated, I tried everything I think I knew, but not having any luck.

Thanks!

In column K4, I entered this formula as you gave it me changing only the cell ranges. {=SUM(--(MMULT(($U$6:$W$36=I3)+($U$6:$W$36=J3),{1;1;1})=2))}

You'll get funny results if your formulae point to the previous row!

But there is a bigger problem. I see from your screenshot that the lottery results can be duplicated, e.g. a possible draw would be 9|9|9, which I haven't allowed for.

Here's a quick fix. The formula is not particularly elegant, but I can't immediately come up with anything more succinct.

G2: =SUMPRODUCT((MMULT(--($A$3:$C$10=E2),{1;1;1})>=COUNTIF(E2:F2,E2))*(MMULT(--($A$3:$C$10=F2),{1;1;1})>=COUNTIF(E2:F2,F2))) (No need to array-enter this time)

Thanks Stephen,

I will go this new one a go in the am! Stay tuned.

Funny how the word elegant has a whole new meaning.

Cheers,

Hey Stephen,

Looks like I'm still having some trouble, here's a cut and paste of the formula with the row and column headings,

I started to do did a rough count of the pairs running down in Column G just so I could see if I was getting close to victory testing what you give me.

K3 shows what I entered. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Too many 0's are showing up when the return should be at least 1 or greater. (my rough count is not complete nor accurate).

 

[StephenCrump]

It works for me:

K3: =SUMPRODUCT((MMULT(--($U$6:$W$36=I3),{1;1;1})>=COUNTIF(I3:J3,I3))*(MMULT(--($U$6:$W$36=J3),{1;1;1})>=COUNTIF(I3:J3,J3)))

Do you have Calculation set to manual, or circular references?

Thanks again, I'm going to try to move to another cell.

Not getting a circular reference message, or a error.

I just changed my my calculations set to Automatic.

Still didn't work. Going to try something. Will get back to you.

Thanks again. Really appreciate all your help.

If you're still stuck, and happy to post your workbook (or a cut-down version) you can always upload to a provider like box.com and post the link here.

By all means, Stephen,

I put a file in there called Mr. Excel---please, do you thing. As much as I would love to understand
I just can't seem to get this one figured out.

Your numbers in I:J are formatted as text. Change to numeric and the formula appears to work OK.
