Frequently asked questions
Does the header row count as a data row?
No, if "First row is header" is checked, it's counted separately and excluded from the data row count.
How is an "empty row" defined?
A row where every field is blank (after trimming whitespace) counts as empty.
What does "column count" show if rows have different lengths?
It shows the widest row's column count, since a CSV's effective width is determined by its longest row.
Is my data uploaded anywhere?
No. Counting happens locally in your browser using JavaScript — nothing you paste is sent to a server.
