我有一组定义一组业务规则的电子表格。这些业务规则然后由我们的系统处理。
创建电子表格的用户天真地这样做，我发现通过跨行分解数据 - 从而减少规则的数量 - 大大提高了系统的性能。
其中一个“天真的”结构化电子表格可能如下所示：
+-----------+------------+------------+------------+------------+--------+
| Rule Name | Criteron 1 | Criteron 2 | Criteron 3 | Criteron 4 | Accept |
+-----------+------------+------------+------------+------------+--------+
| Rule 1 | A | B | C | | Yes |
| Rule 2 | A | C | C | | Yes |
| Rule 3 | A | D | C | | Yes |
| Rule 4 | A | E | C | | Yes |
| Rule 5 | A | F | C | | Yes |
| Rule 6 | A | B | D | | Yes |
| Rule 7 | A | C | D | | Yes |
| Rule 8 | A | D | D | | Yes |
| Rule 9 | A | E | D | | Yes |
| Rule 10 | A | F | D | | Yes |
| Rule 11 | A | B | E | | Yes |
| Rule 12 | A | C | E | | Yes |
| Rule 13 | A | D | E | | Yes |
| Rule 14 | A | E | E | | Yes |
| Rule 15 | A | F | E | | Yes |
| Rule 16 | | | | G | Yes |
| Rule 17 | | | | H | Yes |
| Rule 18 | | | | I | Yes |
| Rule 19 | | | | J | Yes |
| Rule 20 | | | | K | Yes |
| Rule 21 | | | | L | Yes |
| Rule 22 | | | | M | Yes |
| Rule 23 | | | | N | No |
| Rule 24 | | | | O | No |
| Rule 25 | | | | P | No |
| Rule 26 | | | | Q | No |
| Rule 27 | | | | R | No |
| Rule 28 | | | | S | No |
| Rule 29 | A | J | F | | No |
| Rule 30 | A | K | F | | No |
+-----------+------------+------------+------------+------------+--------+
例如，规则 1 将被评估为：
IF (Criterion 1 == A) AND (Criterion 2 == B) AND (Criterion 3 == C) THEN Accept
稍加思考并假设我们可以在列中使用 OR 条件，上面的内容可以简化为：
+-----------+------------+------------+------------+-------------+--------+
| Rule Name | Criteron 1 | Criteron 2 | Criteron 3 | Criteron 4 | Accept |
+-----------+------------+------------+------------+-------------+--------+
| Rule 1 | A | B,C,D,E,F | C,D,E | | Yes |
| Rule 2 | | | |G,H,I,J,K,L,M| Yes |
| Rule 3 | | | |N,O,P,Q,R,S | No |
| Rule 4 | A | J,K | F | | No |
+-----------+------------+------------+------------+-------------+--------+
规则 1 现在评估如下：
IF (Criterion 1 == A) AND
(Criterion 2 == B OR Criterion 2 == C OR...) AND
(Criterion 3 == C OR Criterion 3 == D OR...) THEN Accept
现在，我已经手动完成了。我想知道的是：Excel 是否具有内置功能来为我进行这种分组。如果没有，谁能指出我的算法方向，这将帮助我有效地实现这一点？
