In a spread sheet have a number of senarios.

Cell b1 contains the number 4
would like to create a formula as follows.
If the number in cell b4 is equal to b1 the result is

Click to expand...

=IF(B1=B4,0,IF(B4<B1,3,IF(B4=B1+1,1,"undefined")))

Note that you have not defined the desired result if the number in cell b4 is
greater than b1 by more than one.

number if more than 1. For example, you could say
