If the lookup range is in a single column, the MATCH function finds the first occurrence of the lookup value and returns how many rows down the lookup value is in the lookup range. If the lookup range is in a single row, then the MATCH function finds the first occurrence of the lookup column and returns how many columns across the lookup value is in the lookup range. The last argument of 0 is needed because usually our lookup range will not have sorted values.
