LOOKUP/INDEX MATCH
VLOOKUP: One of the most widely used
functions in Excel for searching for a value in the
leftmost column of a table and returning a
corresponding value from a specified column in
the same row.
XLOOKUP: A newer function (introduced in
Excel 365) that provides more flexibility than
VLOOKUP. It can look up values in both rows
and columns, and it also handles error handling
more effectively.
INDEX MATCH: Alternative to VLOOKUP and
XLOOKUP, looks up a value within a table and
retrieves a corresponding value from any other
row or column in the table.
