Scott, thanks for taking a look. I will try a better example. (In the table, below, Tues is column S, and Wed is column T.)
<o
></o
>
A team wants to keep track of the number of consecutive games Joe makes (or does not make) a 3-point shot. If he makes a 3-pointer, then cell T1 = S1=+1. As long as Joes makes at least 1 three-pointer in a game in which he plays, cell T1 increases by 1. Five games in a row and cell T1 =5.
<o
></o
>
In Games 6 (on Wed), Joe does not make a three-point shot. Cell T1 now = (minus)-1. Cell T1 does not =0 because, now, Joe is beginning a string of games where he makes NO 3-point shots. In the next game Joe plays, he does NOT make any 3-point shots. T1=(minus)-2. In the next game, Joe makes NO 3 point shots. T1=(minus)-3.
<o
></o
>
This continues until Joe plays in a game where he makes at least 1 3-point shot. When he does, cell T1-1. The next day he makes another, so T1=2.
<o
></o
>
The table shows the tally for the last three games. It looks like this.

Each day, the data in the columns is moved to the left to make room for the next game’s tally. Monday will disappear and Tue, and Wed will be moved left. Thurs will appear where Wed is in this table.

Thanks. I hope I explained it well enough.
