Default Evaluate 5 columns and return right-most name

Just because I could never remember how I made that funny character:

=LOOKUP(char(224),A1:E1)

Or a bit shorter

=LOOKUP("α",A1:E1)

where "α" is the alpha character [Alt+224] or inserted with insertsymbol.

Try one of these:

=INDEX(A1:E1,MATCH(REPT("Z",255),A1:E1))

=IF(COUNTIF(A1:E1,"*"),INDEX(A1:E1,MATCH(REPT("Z", 255),A1:E1)),"")

I have 5 columns containing different supervisor levels. Some columns are
blank. I would like to write a formula to evaluate the 5 columns and
return
the name in the farthest right column. Thank you!
