Custom Column Formula

Hi

 

I have a column with 6 different entries, contract 1, contract 2, contract 3, contract 4, contract 5, contract 6. How do you do a formula in a custom column to say if column says contract 1,2 or 3 put new contract in the custom column and if column says contract 4,5,6 put old contract,

 

many thanks

Case sensitive as follows

 

= if [column] = "contract 1" or [column] = "contract 2" or [column] = "contract 3" then "new" else "old"
