What excel formula would I use to count how many consecutive numbers there are in each row of my data source? The data source is A2:E183.

Example:
Row A2 has numbers 13 14 21 28 31
Row A3 has numbers 18 23 29 30 31

How do I find the number of consecutive numbers in row A2?

How do I find the number of consecutive numbers in row A3?

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
According to the following examples, what result do you want in each row:

Libro1
ABCDEF
1
21314212831
31823293031
41011293031
51011143031
613579
712345
81020212223
Hoja1


Important: Explain the logic you use to count.

I hope to hear from you soon.

Thank you. I'm trying to count the number of natural consecutive numbers (n+1) that are in each row,
In my data source, no row has more than 3 natural consecutive numbers in it.

In your example:
Row A2 has 2 consecutive numbers
Row A3 has 3 consecutive numbers
Row A4 has 5 consecutive numbers

In my data source, no row has more than 3 natural consecutive numbers in it.
So, if it's not too much to ask of you, you could put a representative sample of your information, the result in each row and a description of your logic for counting.

Help us help you by providing complete information.
