@Moshi short code constructs do not necessarily mean they are better to read and maintain. And the || operator in js is just such a thing, in many cases it seems as if it is clear what is mean, e.g. that it is used to define a default value. But using it for a default value does not work for every case, so you always need to think about if it is valid to use it in that case, and in a code review you will always need to double-check if the || is valid. — t.niese 46 secs ago

Sidenote: You can eliminate those gotos by putting in an extra function that returns on error. goto is hard to get right. It's harder to prove that you got it right, and it's next to impossible to prove to other people that you got it right and that it's justified. It's such a waste of time trying to get goto through a code review that I avoid it even when I know that it makes the code better unless I have an iron-clad argument. That hasn't happened in decades. — user4581301 1 min ago

@Duga Yes, thank you.

Heh
 
I'm basically flattening a 2D array to a 1D array.
 
you mean a list?
 
I'm not up-to-date with Excel terminology, but sure, probably.
And I thought the following would fix it. In text, M, N O
{=IFERROR(INDEX(C$9:C$17; MATCH(0; IF(COUNTIF(M$21:M21; C$9:C$17&"")<COUNT($8:$8); 0; 1); 0)); "")}
 
I was joking without getting context
very dangerous
 
{=IF(LEN(M22); INDEX($D$8:INDEX($8:$8; MATCH(1E+99;$8:$8 )); ; COUNTIF(M$22:M22; M22)); "")}
{=INDEX(C:P; MATCH(M22;C:C;0); MATCH(N22;$8:$8; 0))}
@Malachi Excel is also very dangerous :-)
