If-Then logics

I have a work sheet with numbers in 'Column A'.
In 'Column B' I wish to get the following output:
If column A is < 3000 then give me '1';
If column B is 5000 then give me '3';
if column A is 3000 but <5000 then give me '2'.
If you mean that for each cell in A, you want the corresponding cell in B to
be 1, 2 or 3, then:
=if(A1<3000, 1, if(A1<5000, 2, 3))
For such a simple choice, I think the IF expression above is the way to go.
But if you had more categories, you might want to consider VLOOKUP. For
example:
=vlookup(A1, {0,3000,5000}, {1, 2, 3})
Note: If A1 might be negative, change 0 to some very large negative number,
e.g. -1E300.
