Why? I assume you posted because you want help with something, but it is going 
to be very difficult to help if you don't know the most basic things about R or 
this mailing list.
Spreadsheet: R can import data from a spreadsheet, but the corresponding native 
terminology in R is "data.frame" or "matrix" depending on what kind of data you 
are working with. This is important because R does not behave at all like a 
spreadsheet and you will confuse us and yourself if you get this mixed up.
For loop: It is unusual to do most calculations in R with for loops. It is 
almost always better to use vector calculations and indexing. Read the 
Introduction to R document that comes with R. In particular, per your question, 
logical indexing or the subset function can be used to find particular values.
If else: There are two forms of if-else in R. The if function is used for 
choosing among code blocks, while the ifelse function is used for vector 
calculations. I imagine you were thinking of the former, but in many cases the 
latter is more appropriate.
Mailing list: Please read the Posting Guide. Posting in HTML is strongly 
discouraged, as it makes a mess of R code. Learn how to send plain text emails. 
Also, this is not a homework help forum, so if this is related to a class then 
get help there because we don't know what your instructor thinks is fair help. 
Finally, please show us what you have already tried including input data (this 
is known as providing a reproducible example).
If this all seems a bit much then you are probably in the wrong place. It takes 
some effort to make sure your question is understood using only email. 
Fortunately, once you learn the basics of the R language it is possible to 
communicate very precisely in email.
