hi, how to compare the results with the allowable stress? If the result is less than allowable stress,the stress is acceptable or else not acceptable.

Thank you

First you have to decide what your allowable and notallowable should be. If they should be variables you'll have to define them first - I replace them by strings of text.

Here are two ways to accomplish what you are looking for. The first one uses an auxiliary function and vectorization and the second one a program with a for-loop.

I include a very simple third one which gives you 1 and 0 instead of the text strings.

Obviously you forgot to attach your worksheet or at least a picture of the problem.

Or if you just looked for a more generic answer: You can either use the programmed if-statement to do so or the if-function (which is similar to what you probably know from your spreadsheet program).
