TECHNICAL PRESENTATION Devika G Task 8 9th Group INDEX FUNCTION IN EXCEL
Index function in excel returns a value or reference of the cell at the
intersection of a particular row and column in a given range. Index formula: = INDEX(array, row_num, [column_num]) OR = INDEX(reference, row_num, [column_num], [area_num]) MATCH FUNCTION IN EXCEL
Match function in excel returns the relative position of an item in an
array that matches a specified order. Match formula: = MATCH(lookup_value, lookup_array, [match_type]) In this formula match_type indicates exact match(0), less than(1) or greater than(-1). 4
FORMULA USING INDEX AND MATCH
We can take the two MATCH formulas and use them to replace the “row_num” and the “column_num” in the original INDEX formula. The result is an INDEX MATCH formula. In this task, we found the salary according to the respective Emp_ID using INDEX MATCH Formula. As you can see there is some mismatch in column head, Emp_Salary and Salary. So we use wild card for Salary to match. Wild card is represented by, eg: “*”&J4&”*” TASK 8 Use Index and Match Formulas 5
