Assign Formula Values Based On Variables

  • I have been fighting this problem for a couple of hours now and could use some real help.


    I have three variables; Independent variables x & y, and dependent variable z.
    x & y can take the values 1,2,3 and can equal each other
    z can also take on values 1,2,3 but can never equal x or y.


    I tried using if/and statements to solve this (see below), but I would have to do it for each case and it exceeds Excels embedded function limit. Any one have any ideas?


    =If(and(B7=1,B10=1),riskduniform(E4:E5),if(and(B7=1,B10=2),3,if(and(B7=1,B10=3),2,if(and(B7=2,B10=2),riskduniform(1,3),if(and(B7=2,B10=1),3,if(and(B7=2,B10=1),3,if(and(B7=3,B10=3),riskduniform(1,2),if(and(B7=3,B10=1),2,if(and(B7=3,B10=2),1)))))))))


    Thank you in advance,
    Brian

    =if(b7=b10,if(b7=1,...if(b7=2,...if(b7=3....))),if(.............)))))))
    this shouldnt work?
