Ever wonder what is the fastest lookup function in Excel? In this experiment style video, I test VLOOKUP vs. INDEX+MATCH vs. XLOOKUP by writing 11 million formulas. The results are surprising!!!
Note: there is no sample file for this video (the dataset is rather large, but feel free to make some random data in Excel to test the concepts yourself).
⏱ In this video:
=============
0:00 - Fastest lookup formula in Excel!
0:26 - Dataset and testing methodology
2:31 - Writing the VLOOKUP formula
3:34 - INDEX MATCH formula
4:34 - Faster INDEX MATCH formulas
6:32 - XLOOKUP formula
7:16 - The results (calculation time)
10:51 - File size comparison
11:48 - What does it all mean?
