Sum & Count

Total, count, and running stats for a list of numbers.

Free to use, no sign-up required. Sum & Count is one of 198 tools built into Xenition, alongside a chat that can use them for you.

Adds up a list of numbers pasted from a spreadsheet, receipt or notes, and shows the count, average, smallest, largest and product.

How to use Sum & Count

  1. Paste or type numbers into the box, one per line or separated by commas, spaces or semicolons.
  2. Read the Sum and the number of values under it.
  3. Check Average, Min, Max, Product and Count.

How it works

Each piece of text between separators is read as a number, and anything that is not a number is skipped. Sum adds them, Average is sum ÷ count, and Product multiplies them all together. Sum, average and product show up to four decimal places.

Example

For 12, 34, 56 and 78, the sum is 180 over 4 values, the average is 45, the min is 12, the max is 78 and the product is 1,782,144.

Questions about Sum & Count

Why is my total wrong when I paste numbers like 1,250?

Commas are treated as separators, so 1,250 is read as two numbers, 1 and 250. Remove thousands separators before pasting, or put one number per line without commas.

Can I paste currency amounts?

A leading currency symbol stops that value being read as a number, so it is skipped. Compare the Count with the number of values you expected to catch this.

Use it from chat

You do not have to open Sum & Count to use it. Ask Xenition in plain language and it runs the right tool, then carries the answer into whatever you are working on — a document, a spreadsheet, a deck.
