Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The syntax of the COUNTA function is–“COUNTA(value1, [value2], …), ” where “value 1” (mandatory) and “value 2” are the values to be counted. The argument of the COUNTA function can be a range, a cell, a value, an array of values, or a reference to cell ranges.
