An in-line array, gets useful for multi-condition tests.

You would only change one, then copy down for the rest. Not arguing against
a table, just pointing out that it is not that onerous. More importantly, if
there are many instances of that type formula (the non-table type), it is
less efficient and consumes more workbook.

That's a good tip Bob, I didn't even realise you could list in-place (so

to speak).
I'll have to remember that one!

NOTE to Andy, If you change your points scoring system, then you have to

change every instance of this, If you use a
table (as in the answer I submitted) then you only change the points in

the table once.
