Hi, Wondering if anyone can help me with figuring out of if it's possible to make a function on excel with V lookup and IF, if you can pls post an example.

Or give an example of using both of these functions in a algorithm to reference to cells on another page in excel within the function.

Thanks alot!

Hmm. Not sure what you need the IF for. But you're welcome to look at my spreadsheet for Maplestory. It has a nice VLOOKUP centered database. You would just wrap the IF around the VLOOKUP. It's an Excel 2007 file. Look at the part labeled "Reference Lookup" in particular (rows 25, 26, and 27).

EDIT: You could make an if statement anyway you wanted... for example: =IF(B2>=3, VLOOKUP(#1), VLOOKUP(#2)) or =IF(B2< VLOOKUP(#1), 6, VLOOKUP(#2))

In addition to finish learning C, I am also reading the book From bits to Gates to C and Beyond. In the book, it uses the mini LC3 assembly language. I also have books on assembly programming and computer architecture. The few famous ones i have are Computer Organization and...
I have a quick questions. I am going through a book on C programming on my own. Afterwards, I plan to go through something call data structures and algorithms on my own also in C. I also need to learn C++, Matlab and for personal interest Haskell. For the two topic of data structures and algorithms, I understand there are standard ones across all programming languages. After learning it through C, what would be the biggest issue when trying to implement the same data...
