 What is Excel?

What is Microsoft Excel is a spreadsheet program from

Microsoft and a component of its Office

Excel?
product group for business applications.
Microsoft Excel enables users to format,
organize and calculate data in a spreadsheet.

By organizing data using software like Excel,

data analysts and other users can make
information easier to view as data is added or
changed. Excel contains a large number of
boxes called cells that are ordered in rows and
columns. Data is placed in these cells.

Excel is a part of the Microsoft Office and Office

365 suites and is compatible with other
applications in the Office suite. The spreadsheet
software is available for Windows, macOS,
Android and iOS platform

VLOOKUP FORMULA IN EXCEL

Q4

#1 Formula For Excel

This advanced Excel function is one of the most used formulae in Excel. It is mainly due to the
simplicity of this formula and its application in looking up a certain value from other tables,
which has one common variable across these tables. For example, suppose you have two
tables with details about a company’s employee salary and name, with “Employee ID” being a
primary column. You want to get the salary from Table B in Table A.
 YOU CAN USE VLOOKUP
FORMULA BY:

It will result in the table below when we apply this advanced Excel formula in other cells of the “Employee Salary” column.
It will result in the table below when we apply this advanced
Excel formula in other cells of the “Employee Salary” column.
Drag the formula to the rest of the
cells.
#2 INDEX FORMULA IN EXCEL

This advanced Excel formula is used to get the value

of a cell in a given table by specifying the number of
rows, columns, or both. E.g., to get an employee’s
name at the 5th observation. Below is the data.
We can use the Index Formula in Excel below:

This advanced Excel formula is used to

get the value of a cell in a given table
by specifying the number of rows,
columns, or both. E.g., to get an
employee’s name at the 5th
observation. Below is the data.
INDEX FORMULA We can use the same INDEX
formula in getting values along
the row. So, for example, when
using both row and column
numbers, the syntax would
look like this

Note: If you insert another

row into the 5th row, the
formula will return as
“Chandan Kale.” Hence, the
output would depend on any
changes happening in the
data table over time.
#3 – MATCH Formula in Excel
This Excel advanced formula returns the row or column number when a
specific string or number is in the given range. In the below example, we
are trying to find “Rajesh Ved” in the “Employee Name” column.
The formula would be as given
below:
 The MATCH function
would return 5 as the value.
The 3rd argument is used for the
exact match. You can also use +1
and -1 based on your
requirements.

Note: One can combine INDEX and MATCH to

overcome the limitation of VLOOKUP.
 #4 – IF AND Formula in Excel
There are many instances when one needs to create flags based on some constraints.
We all are familiar with the basic syntax of IF. We use this advanced excel IF function
to create a new field based on some existing field constraints. But what if we need to
consider multiple columns while creating a flag. E.g., in the below case, we want to
flag all the employees whose salary is greater than 50,000. But “Employee ID” is
greater than 3.
We would use the IF AND formula in such It would return the result as
cases. Please find below the screenshot
for the same. 0.

We can have many conditions or constraints to create a flag based on

multiple columns using AND.
#5 – IF OR Formula in Excel
Similarly, we can also use the OR function in
excel instead of AND if we need to satisfy one
of the many conditions.
 If any condition is satisfied in the above cases, we will
have the cell populated as 1 else 0. We can also
substitute 1 or 0 by some substrings with double quotes
(“”).
