Explain he difference between the lookup table in cells A3:E4 of the Grades worksheet and the lookup table in cells A5:E7 in the same worksheet.
The lookup table in A3:E4 of the Grades worksheet is sorted in descending order, and the lookup table in cells A:E is sorted in ascending order, which allows you to use the HLOOKUP function with a TRUE lookup type.
Which Excel function should you use when you want to look up a value from a two-dimensional table, where both the columns and rows can be varied?
To find a value in a two-dimensional table, use the INDEX function.
Excel matches the lookup_value "tom" with the entry "tom" in a lookup table. True or False?
True
In a VLOOKUP formula with a TRUE lookup type, the first column of the lookup table referenced must be in ascending order to retrieve the correct value. True or False?
True
The formula =INDEX((B2:D7,B12:D17,B22:D17),2,3,1) returns the value in cell D3. True or False?
True
The formula =MATCH(40,{10,20,40,50},0) returns the value 3. True or False?
True
What is the difference between the LOOKUP function and the VLOOKUP or HLOOKUP function?
VLOOKUP searches for a value in the leftmost column of a table, and then returns a value in the same row from a column you specify in the table. HLOOKUP is similar but it searches a horizontal lookup table. LOOKUP function looks for a matching value in a range of cells (vertical or horizontal) that you specify and returns a value. LOOKUP is limited to a single row or column.
