FormulaDescriptionResultExpectedVerdict
=LOOKUP(3,A1:A5,B1:B5) Vector form exact match against an ascending-sorted lookup_vector 30 30
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/lookup-function-446d94af-663b-451d-8251-369d5e3864cb -- lookup_vector must be in ascending order for LOOKUP to work correctly; this vector is sorted
Matched
=LOOKUP(3.5,A1:A5,B1:B5) No exact match; LOOKUP uses the largest lookup_vector value that is <= lookup_value 30 30
3.5 has no exact match; largest value <=3.5 is 3 -> paired result 30
Matched
=LOOKUP(0,A1:A5,B1:B5) lookup_value smaller than every entry in lookup_vector -> #N/A #N/A #N/A Matched
=LOOKUP(2,A1:B3) Array form (single 2-D argument, no separate result_vector): since A1:B3 has more rows than columns, LOOKUP searches the FIRST column and returns from the LAST column 200 200
Per Microsoft docs' array-form rule (searches first row/col depending on which is longer): match on A2=2 returns paired last-column value 200
