ASCAN, Array SCAN, 3 in 1 function, SCAN by row, by column, by array. This is my take of tboulden's SCANBYROW/BYCOL.
Uses only new!! SCAN lambda helper function, no need of byrow,bycol,makearray, or lambda as arguments.
Excel Formula:
=LAMBDA(a,[d],
    LET(y,IF(d=1,TRANSPOSE(a),a),s,SCAN(0,y,LAMBDA(v,a,v+a)),r,ROWS(s),c,COLUMNS(s),sr,SEQUENCE(r)-1,
       x,s-IF(d,IFERROR(INDEX(INDEX(s,,c),sr)*sr^0,0),0),
       IF(d=1,TRANSPOSE(x),x)
   )
)

18adds a constant value to the final outcome , like in 10+ASCAN(a)

For the current project / assignment I am working on, this is what (following a principled approach), worked for me.
Repeats each column of an array 3 times, before sequentially repeating the next column 3 times.
I have more formally turned this into a function, and given it a name like COLSRPT_N_TIMES, so I can rapidly reuse and apply it to the other places I need to, to get to the right output view, to lead on with the other calculations that I need to do.

=INDEX(F11#,SEQUENCE(ROWS(F11#),1,1),QUOTIENT(SEQUENCE(, COLUMNS(F11#)*3,3,1),3))

Hi ,
Cool example to share.
Mike asked me on the comments section of his latest YT:
"a formula that will enact a running sub-count for consecutive numbers. I have a none spill formula like this:

G10 contains: 2
and I use this formula in Column H starting in cell H10: =IF(G10=G9,H9+1,1) to get: 1
G11 contains: 1
and I use this formula in Column H starting in cell H10: =IF(G11=G10,H10+1,1) to get: 1
G12 contains: 3
and I use this formula in Column H starting in cell H10: =IF(G12=G11,H11+1,1) to get: 1
G13 contains: 1
and I use this formula in Column H starting in cell H10: =IF(G13=G12,H12+1,1) to get: 1
G14 contains: 3
and I use this formula in Column H starting in cell H10: =IF(G14=G13,H13+1,1) to get: 1
G15 contains: 3
and I use this formula in Column H starting in cell H10: =IF(G15=G14,H14+1,1) to get: 2
G16 contains: 2
and I use this formula in Column H starting in cell H10: =IF(G16=G15,H15+1,1) to get: 1
G17 contains: 2
and I use this formula in Column H starting in cell H10: =IF(G17=G16,H16+1,1) to get: 2 "


Since it will be a SCAN/REDUCE lambda formula scenario like so many other examples here, belongs to this thread.

Hi Xlambda,
Regarding to running count,If we start in reverse order,
Is it possible to do with function scan or another way?And also is possible with several columns?

Thanks

=IF(G9=G10,H9+1,1)
= IF(G10=G11,H10+1,1)

We will get the result,1;1;1;1;2;1;2;1,

Hi @bines53,
In general, with lambda functions anything is possible if you have a "healthy" consistent algorithm concept. At that time, I did some lambda helper functions to cover all scenarios.
A function to identify the "mod" and "quotient" pattern of consecutive values in any array (vectors, 2D and 2D byrow) and in any relationship, not only "=". For example, how many consecutive times sales registered a growth bigger than 10% of the previous. Very useful type of reports, difficult to get with other tools.
Having the mod and quotient distrib. another function can extract these distributions in an array form, very easy to filter and interpret.
Mike agreed to make a video on the matter but then we decided that it was too niched for his channel, even if the functions are quite simple.
If you do care to get into them, the reasoning, and concepts behind them, I will be happy to prepare a presentation for you and anybody else interested. Trust me, the simplicity of it is striking. No quantum anything. 😉
 
Link does not work, saying page not found...What is about? Other reference? Or explain me in simple terms what does. ✌
