LOOKUP

Look for criterion in an already-sorted array, and return a corresponding result. Returns the contents of a cell either from a one-row or one-column range.

Optionally, the assigned value (of the same index) is returned in a different column and row. As opposed to VLOOKUP and HLOOKUP, search and result vector may be at different positions; they do not have to be adjacent.

Pytanje zastupowace symbole abo regularne wurazy podpěruje. Ze zmóžnjenymi regularnymi wurazami móžeće „all.*“ zapodać, zo byšće na přikład prěnje wustupowanje „all“, slědowane wot někajkich znamješkow, namakał. Jeli chceće tekst pytać, kotryž je tež regularny wuraz, dyrbiće pak před kóžde metaznamješko abo operator regularneho wuraza znamješko „\“ stajić pak tekst z \Q…\E wobdać. Móžeće awtomatiske wuhódnoćenje zastupowacych symbolow abo regularnych wurazow w – LibreOfficeDev Calc – Wuličić zmóžnić abo znjemóžnić.


warning

Hdyž funkcije wužiwaće, hdźež so jedyn argument wužiwa abo wjacore argumenty wužiwaja, kotrež su znamješkowe rjećazki pytanskich kriterijow, kotrež regularny wuraz reprezentuja, prěni pospyt je, kriterije znamješkoweho rjećazka do ličbow přetworić. „.0“ so na přikład do 0.0 přetworja a tak dale. Jeli to je wuspěšne, njebudźe wotpowědnik wotpowědnik regularneho wuraza, ale budźe numeriski wotpowědnik. Hdyž wšak narodnu šemu wužiwaće, hdźež decimalne dźělatko dypk njeje, budźe přetworjenje regularneho wuraza fungować. Zo byšće wuhódnoćenje regularneho wuraza město numeriskeho wuraza wunuzował, wužiwajće někajki wuraz, kotryž njeda so wopak jako numeriski rozumić, na přikład „.[0]“ abo „.\0“ abo „(?i).0.


Syntax

LOOKUP(Lookup; SearchVector [; ResultVector])

Lookup is the value of any type to be looked for; entered either directly or as a reference.

SearchVector is an array of data. The lookup is performed in the first row or first column of the array.

note

The search vector for the LOOKUP must be sorted ascending, otherwise the search will not return any usable results. Numerical values precede values of type Text if both types are included (for example, -2, 0, 2, “A”, “B”).


If SearchVector has same number of columns and rows or has more rows than columns, LOOKUP searches in the first column (similar to VLOOKUP), and returns the corresponding value in the last column.

If SearchVector has more columns than rows, LOOKUP searches in the first row (similar to HLOOKUP), and returns the corresponding value in the last row.

ResultVector is another single-row or single-column range from which the result of the function is taken. The result is the cell of the result vector with the same index as the instance found in the search vector.

If ResultVector is omitted, the function returns the value found in the last row or last column of the SearchVector array.

If SearchVector is a one-dimensional array and if ResultVector is omitted, the function returns the last occurrence of the lookup value if it exists in the SearchVector.

Country Codes Samples

=LOOKUP(46,A2:B34) returns "Sweden", the country which code is 46. Since the result vector is not defined, the function returns the value in the last column of the search array.

=LOOKUP(55,A2:A34,D2:D34) returns "BR/BRA", the ISO code for country code 55 (Brazil).

=LOOKUP(7,A2:B34) returns "Russia", the last occurrence of country code 7 in the search array.
