The SEQUENCE function allows users to generate a list of sequential numbers in an array, such as 1, 2, 3, 4. For example:
Argument
Required
Description
rows
Y
The number of rows to return
[columns]
N
The number of columns to return
[start]
N
The first number in the sequence
[step]
N
The amount to increment each subsequent value in the array
Note:
The SEQUENCE function is only valid when allowDynamicArray is true.
The SEQUENCE function will return an array, which will spill if it's the final result of a formula.
Any missing optional arguments will default to 1.
If you don't input a minimum or maximum value argument, RANDARRAY will default to 0 and 1 respectively.
An array can be thought of as a row of values, a column of values, or a combination of rows and columns of values.
