FCOUNT_G

For reliability growth data analysis only.

Description: For RGA multiple system data types, this returns the total number of modes or failures across all systems.

Note: In RGA Version 2019 and earlier, this was the FCOUNT function. Starting in Version 2020 that function is used only for life data and life-stress data folios.

Syntax: FCOUNT_G(Data_Src, Type)

• Data_Src is the source data sheet from which the value is taken.

• Type allows you to select the mode or failure type to count. It is shown in the function as a numerical value that indicates the selected type: All modes = 0, A Modes = 1, BC Modes = 2, BD Modes = 3. P Failures = 4 and Q Failures = 5.

Remarks:

• The Data_Src can be one of the following values:

  • A default data source selected from the Data Source Index drop-down list.

  • A data sheet name (e.g., "Weibull!Folio1!Data1").

  • A variable name defined in the Defined Names window (e.g., datasource).

Example:

• FCOUNT_G("RGA!Folio1!Data1",0)
