Divide a number into multiple results

[excelNewbie22]

hi!

i have a dynamic range of number, every few days changes,
a2:a1000, or a2:a1515....
and i want to get random x numbers which will cover most of the range,
by getting the entire count of the range, say... 950, divides to say... 15, which will be 63 (round),
so i'll get 1 random number from each 62 cells,
so i did this:

sheet1
	A	B	C	D	E	F	G	H
1	950	divide to 15						vstack
2	1	63	so…	1	63		2	24
3	2			64	126		0	0
4	3			127	189
5	4			190	252
6	5
7	6
8	7
9	8
10	9
11	10
12	11
13	12
14	13
15	14
16	15
17	16
18	17
19	18
20	19
21	20
22	21
23	22
24	23
25	24
26	25
27	26
28	27
29	28
30	29
31	30
32	31
33	32

Cell Formulas
Range	Formula
B2	B2	=ROUND(950/15,0)
H2:H3	H2	=VSTACK(TRANSPOSE(LET(u,UNIQUE(TOROW(A2:INDIRECT("a"&$B$2+2)),1),TAKE(SORTBY(u,RANDARRAY(,COLUMNS(u))),,1))),TRANSPOSE(LET(u,UNIQUE(TOROW(INDIRECT("a"&$B$2+3):INDIRECT("a"&$B$2*2+(2))),1),TAKE(SORTBY(u,RANDARRAY(,COLUMNS(u))),,1))))
G2	G2	=TRANSPOSE(LET(u,UNIQUE(TOROW(A2:INDIRECT("a"&$B$2+2)),1),TAKE(SORTBY(u,RANDARRAY(,COLUMNS(u))),,1)))
G3	G3	=TRANSPOSE(LET(u,UNIQUE(TOROW(INDIRECT("a"&$B$2+3):INDIRECT("a"&$B$2*2+(2))),1),TAKE(SORTBY(u,RANDARRAY(,COLUMNS(u))),,1)))
Dynamic array formulas.

but this is long, is there anything more clever? shorter? (the end result will be a much longer)

How about

=LET(a,A2:A951,b,COUNT(a),c,FLOOR.MATH(b/15,1),DROP(REDUCE("",SEQUENCE(b/c,,,c),LAMBDA(x,y,VSTACK(x,TAKE(SORTBY(CHOOSEROWS(a,SEQUENCE(c,,y)),RANDARRAY(c)),1)))),1))

You get the error as col D is text & not numbers, so Count will return 0, you would need to use COUNTA
