When doing an exact match, you'll always get the first match, period. It doesn't matter if data is sorted or not. In the screen below, the lookup value in E5 is "red". The VLOOKUP function, in exact match mode, returns the price for the first match: Notice the last argument in VLOOKUP is FALSE to force exact match.
If you are doing an approximate match, and data is sorted by lookup value, you'll get the last match. Why? Because during an approximate match Excel scans through values until a value larger than the lookup value is found, then it "steps back" to the previous value. In the screen below, VLOOKUP is set to approximate match mode, and colors are sorte...
With standard approximate match lookups, data must be sorted by lookup value. With unsorted data, you may see normal-looking results that are totally incorrect. This problem is more likely with VLOOKUP because VLOOKUP defaults to approximate matchwhen no fourth argument is provided. To illustrate this problem, see the example below. Data is unsorte...
At this point, you may be feeling a little confused and disoriented about the idea that approximate match can return the last match in some cases. If so, don't worry. Using approximate match to get the last match is not the "normal" case. Typically, you'll see approximate match used to assign values according to some kind of scale. A classic exampl...
How can we use the behavior described above in a practical situation? Well, one common scenario is looking up the "latest" or "last" entry for an item. For example, below we are using VLOOKUP in approximate match mode to find the latest price for Sandals. Notice data is sorted by item, then by date, so the latest price for a given item appears last...
Other lookup functions can be used this way as well. Below, we are using an equivalent INDEX and MATCHformula find the latest price with the same data. Notice MATCH is configured to approximate match for items sorted in ascending order by setting the third argument to 1:
The LOOKUP function can also be used in this case. LOOKUP alwaysperforms an approximate match, so it works well in "last match" scenarios. The formula is quite simple:
What if you want the last match, but data isn't sorted by lookup value? In other words, you want to apply criteria to find a match, and you simply want the last item in the data that matches your criteria? This is actually a case where the LOOKUP function shines, because LOOKUP can handle array operations natively, without control + shift + enter. ...
The beauty of the LOOKUP function is it can handle the array operation described above natively in older versions of Excel without requiring you to enter as an array formulawith control + shift + enter. However, you can certainly use an array formula if you like. Here is the equivalent INDEX and MATCH formula, which must be entered with control + s...
The approach above turns out to be really useful. For example, by tweaking the logic a bit, we can do things like find the last non-empty cell in a column: This formula is described in more detail here.
First Match is a 2018 American drama film written and directed by Olivia Newman, based on her 2010 short film of the same name. The film stars Elvire Emanuelle, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Colman Domingo, Jharrel Jerome, and Jared Kemp.
“First Match” is a tough film with a tender streak for its protagonist and her struggles. Emanuelle’s performance carries the film past its episodic feel and into a sense of a young woman at the crossroads of her life.
