Help with Formula to get Sum of Non-Numerical Column

I have a column filled with either Y's or N's, I only want a total count of all the N's for this column.  What formula do I use?

    It's not a "sum".  It is a count, as you note in your description.

     

    Your posting lacks sufficient details for a turnkey solution.  Perhaps something of the form:

     

    =COUNTIF(A1:A100, "n")

      Hi Joe,

      Sorry I was not clearer on my question, but you understood my thought and your formula worked.
      Thank you
