The "let" function may be of interest to those wanting to excel more programmatically. There's also lambda that is interesting for the more modern excel use cases.

=Let(table,$C$17:$S$24,

rowName,A6,

colName,C6,

headerRow,$C$15:$S$15,

headerCol,$A$17:$A$24,

rowIndex,MATCH(rowName,headerCol,0),

colIndex,MATCH(colName,headerRow,0),

index(table,rowIndex,colIndex)

)

or even

=LAMBDA(table,rowNames,colNames,rowToFind,colToFind,

     LET(

          rowIndex,MATCH(rowToFind,rowNames,0),

          colIndex,MATCH(colToFind,colNames,0),

          INDEX(table,rowIndex,colIndex)

     )

)($C$17:$S$24,$A$17:$A$24,$C$15:$S$15,A6,C6)

(Also alt+enter to input the newlines)
