Numbers table count of checkboxes in column

I have a simple table of 99 names in column 1 and a column of checkboxes to keep track of whether they answered an invitation--I want a count of number of checkboxes at bottom of column that I have checked--

This is trivial with the COUNTIF() function.


COUNTIF() counts the number of cells in a range that match a value - in this case, just provide the range of checkboxes (e.g. column B) and the value TRUE, and it will count how many checkboxes are set:


=COUNTIF(B, true)



In this case, my table has one footer row, which is excluded from the count, so I can just specify all of Column B for the check.
