Oh it would still be SUMPRODUCT, but if you could do
=SUMPRODUCT(--(ISEVEN(A1:A5)))
that is so much more self-descriptive than using MOD. Unfortunately, the
ISEVEN function seems incapable of processing an array of values, just as
WEEKNUM cannot. Must be something to do with being an ATP function, I wonder
if it works with 2007 (must try it).
You could use
=SUMPRODUCT(--(EVEN(A1:A5)=A1:A5))
but I am not sure that that is any better than MOD
