The principals I am describing also apply to building a label from a dictionary and is demonstrated in my Blog on Creating Labels with Related Table Data. Adding Field to GIS Table Layer > Open Attribute Table > Option > add field Density (In ArcMap, Start Edit session) Right click on the new field > Calculate. In Arcade, month values range from 0 (January) to 11 (December), days from the 1st to the 31st, hours from 0 (12:00 am) to 23 (11:00 pm), minutes and seconds from 0 to 59, and milliseconds from 0 to 999. The following table shows a sample of available operations. All other features just reference the count already stored in the dictionary built for the first feature. Calculate Field expressions are able to process dates. You can use the cursor approach in the Field Calculator, but you have to make the dictionary a global variable and generate it by reading all the records of the cursor only once as you calculate the first feature. See the last example in my Blog on Turbo Charging Data Manipulation with Python Cursors and Dictionaries.

The cursor approach basically uses a dictionary in memory to do the counting and then run a second update cursor to update the count column from the dictionary.

The easiest approach is simply to run summary statistics on the column, join the column to the summary output, and calculate the summary count values over to the count field in the original. This allows the calculation of area in the coordinate system of the data. Most GIS analysts using ArcGIS are taught to calculate polygon areas in ArcMap using the Calculate Geometry tool in the attribute table. Calculating polygon areas is one of the most basic geometric operations. Parser: Python Expression: ( () - (field1)).days. Calculate the number of days between the current date and the value in a field. Right-click the new field name in the attribute table, and select Field Calculator. Calculate the date to be December 31st 2000.

This is generally not something that should be done using the Field Calculator (although by using a cursor you can do it, it is better to create a standalone Python script). Calculating Geodesic Areas in ArcMap with Field Calculator. For more information on the field data types, refer to the following documentation: ArcGIS field data types. Within ArcMap 10.3 field calculator, I am looking to count the number of features in a column that match the current value, and output that count.
