1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10


Into this:
Code: Select all 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
1 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0
2 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0
3 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0
4 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0
5 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0


6 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0
7 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0
8 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0
9 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0
10 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0

By using IF formula. I Know how to make it with different formulas, but I need that one formula which would fit all. Please help.

The first thing to note is that the IF formula doesn't need to pay attention to the row number - the result the formula returns only depends on the column.

So, in English the formula does this:
If the column header is 3 Or 4 Or 7 Or 8, Then Return 1. Otherwise return 0.

This is your homework, so I'm not going to just give you the formula. Have a look through your class notes and have a stab at it. There are several ways to do it, but I expect your teacher expects you to do it using the OR() function nested inside an IF() function.

Have a go and post back with what you've tried if you have no success.
