I have two columns: Category and Score. Eg
Category | Score
Math | 3
Science | 2
Math | 4
History | 3
Art | 1
Science | 1
History | 5
Science | 3
Art | 2
I would like to have a cell that searches for all of the scores for History and sum that up. What would be the appropriate loop, if, and sum functions in Excel for that? Thanks!
You are looking for the SUMIF
function.
Try this: =SUMIF(A:A,"History",B:B)
That will search all of column A for "History" and sum all of column B if "History" is found.
Make sure there are no trailing spaces after "History" (such as "History ") else you will want to clean that up or use a wildcard like so =SUMIF(A:A,"History*",B:B)
