Accepted Answer

Excel vlookup is a function used to search for a value in a table and return a corresponding value from another column.

VLOOKUP stands for vertical lookup.
It is commonly used to find information in large datasets.
The function requires four arguments: lookup value, table array, column index number, and range lookup.
The lookup value is the value to search for in the first column of the table.
The table array is the range of cells that contains the data.
The column index number specifies which column to return the value from.
Range lookup is an optional argument that determines whether an exact match is required or not.
If an exact match is not found, VLOOKUP can perform approximate matches using the range lookup argument.
The function returns the corresponding value from the specified column.
For example, =VLOOKUP(A2, B2:D10, 3, FALSE) searches for the value in cell A2 in the range B2:D10 and returns the value from the third column.
