Hello Sam;

A nice solution with Validation.

Hello Mahreen;

If you use "3", "2", "1" (number inside "") this will return the number as 
text. When you do calculation excel is considering these as text. Use it 
without "" or you can simplify the formula to;

=IFERROR(LOOKUP($E$2,{-9E+300,3;3,1;4,0;5,-3}),0)

and use it as Sam shows.

Another way is to ignore all error values when summing;

=SUMIF(A:A,"<9E300")
