2. We can set up a
aproximate lookup
The output could be
looked up whether in
columns or rows
Output a
relative
information
in our aray
and
The array contains
the criteria
Must be a unique
criteria for finding it
Find the
value in a
array
always
Use a value
as a criteria
i. e.
Typed Values
A cell
What can we do
with lookup
functions?
The lookup functions locate a
requested value in an array, and
then match it with another value
in a relative position to this value.
Lookup
functions
3. We’ll always need to indicate to excel…
What we look for
Where we want to find the
value
What matching value
we need to get
The look up functions
have more advanced
searching options
4. How do we look up with this
formula?
V lookup
V lookup digs across the rows of one column
for finding a value we give to the formula, and
match it with its corresponding value in
another column we indicate.
5. What are the limitations for this function?
V lookup
Non eficient for a repeated value
It won’t show us the whole matches for a same array-repeated value.
Its lookup process goes from left to right
It won’t match foor any column at right side of our look up array.
Need manually calculate the column index
Calculate the index column could be difficult for wide column matrixs.
6. How do we look up with this
formula?
H lookup
V lookup digs across the columns of one row
for finding a value we give to the formula, and
match it with its corresponding value in
another row we indicate.
7. What are the limitations for this function?
H lookup
Non eficient for a repeated value
It won’t show us the whole matches for a same array-repeated value.
Its lookup process goes from Up to down
It won’t match foor any column at right side of our look up array.
Need manually calculate the row index
Calculate the index column could be difficult for wide column matrixs.
8. How do we look up with this
formula?
X lookup
X lookup can dig across whether a row or a
column, and match it with a value in another
column or row, respectively.
9. What are the limitations for this function?
X lookup
Non eficient for a repeated value
It won’t show us the whole matches for a same array-repeated value.
Could be difficult to understand the optional inputs
The way of interact with the approximate lookup is not intuitive.

It helps us to find a value
based in whether two
columns or rows
