Flookup is a data cleaning solution for Google Sheets. It is designed to handle different kinds of datasets, including those that contain text entries with partial matches, typos or different spelling conventions.

A Brief Overview of Flookup Functions:
1. FLOOKUP, QLOOKUP and MLOOKUP: Merge data or match text in vertically structured data, based on percentage similarity. Matches for each lookup value are ranked in order of descending percentage similarity.
2. HFLOOKUP: Merge data or match text in horizontally structured data, based on percentage similarity. Matches for each lookup value are ranked in order of descending percentage similarity.
3. SOUNDMATCH: Merge data or match text in vertically structured data, based on sound similarity. Matches for each lookup value are ranked in alphabetical order.
4. FUZZYMATCH: Calculate the percentage similarity between two text entries. It can also calculate the percentage similarity between concatenated text entries.
5. ULIST: Extract unique values from a specified range based on percentage similarity.
6. NORMALIZE: Remove diacritical marks, punctuation marks or stop words from any text. This is especially useful if applied before using any of the functions mentioned above.
