Count based on cell value between two numbers
Perhaps for the more experienced this is easy. I hope so.
I want to build a sheet that scores a point value based on data entered in one cell. I would like to score a point for any number between 1 and 20, two points for any number between 21 and 40, etc... I imagine it's some version of an IF formula but I can't seem to figure it out. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance! |

Count based on cell value between two numbers
Hi,
Try this =IF(A1,LOOKUP(A1,{0,21,41,61},{1,2,3,4}),"") The if(a1 bit makes it return nothing if a1 is empty. After that 1 to 20 returns 1, 2 to 40 =2 etc. -- Mike When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the question.

Perfect! Thanks Mike! I didn't really understand the lookup function but I
was able to use your formula and teach myself a little of what the lookup did and how to use it. Exactly what I was hoping to get from here!
