How do I use INDEX and MATCH functions in Excel?
The INDEX function returns a value from a specified position in a range, while MATCH finds the position of a value in a range. Together, they can look up values dynamically.
Can you give me an example of how to combine them?
Sure! If you have a list of names in A1:A5 and corresponding scores in B1:B5, you can use =INDEX(B1:B5, MATCH("John", A1:A5, 0))
to find John's score.
What does the '0' in the MATCH function do?
The '0' specifies that you want an exact match. If you used '1' or '-1', it would look for the closest match instead.
Can I use INDEX and MATCH for multiple criteria?
Yes, you can combine them with other functions like IF or use an array formula to handle multiple criteria.
