How can I make a dynamic table display a value that isn't in the sheet, but its a possible outc

Time:11-19

Imagine I have a table 2x2 in Google Sheets:

variable_1 variable_2
x 10
y 13
x 7
z 11

A Dynamic Table with with variable_1 in the lines and the sum(variable_2) as a value, i would getthe following table:

variable_1 sum(variable_2)
x 17
y 13
z 11

Now imagine that the first column is a qualitative variable with the following possible outcomes: x, y, z or w. Is there a way to, when I make a Dynamic Table, to display the "w" outcome with the value 0?

In R, i would define variable_1 as a factor and, automaticaly, the grouping would include the "w". I need to get the following table:

variable_1 sum(variable_2)
x 17
y 13
z 11
w 0

try:

=INDEX(IF(D2:D="",,IFNA(VLOOKUP(D2:D, QUERY(A1:B, 
 "select A,sum(B) group by A label sum(B)''"), 2, 0), 0)))
