Sedra-Stats

NO'ACH Stats
2nd of 54 sedras (2nd of 12 in B'reishit)
Written on 230 lines in a Sefer Torah, rank: 15th
18 Parshiyot; 5 open, 13 closed; rank 12th
153 p'sukim - ranks 4th Largest in B'reishit - tied with Vayishlach
1861 words - ranks 11th (6th in B'reishit)
6907 letters - ranks 13th (6th in B'reishit)
Drop in ranking for words and letters is due to No'ach's very short p'sukim. No'ach ranks 49th in words/pasuk and 51st in letters/pasuk. No sedra in B'reishit has shorter p'sukim.

Mitzvot:
None of TARYAG are counted from No’ach, yet there are mitzvot in the sedra, specifically (but not only) references to the Noahide laws. So too is P'RU URVU repeated to No'ach - it is counted as a mitzva from B'reishit, when it was commanded to Adam and Chava.
