Calculations - editable cell formulas

TreeGrid documentation

This document describes EDITABLE formulas entered by users directly into cells.
To read about NOT EDITABLE formulas entered by developers into data see Cell data formulas.
When calculating the grid, the editable formulas are calculated independently after the not editable formulas.

If set FormulaEditing="1", a user can enter formula in given cell(s) by starting the value by "=", like in Excel.
When entered the value starting by "=", the cell EFormula is updated and calculated and the cell value gets the formula result.

Strings
Strings are written in quotes, there can be used both " or '. To place the quote to string, double it, e.g. "aaa""bbb" => aaa"bbb. All other characters, including '\' have standard meaning.

Numbers
Numbers are written as they are in digits 0 - 9, optionally with decimal separator.

Dates
Date constants are not accepted. They must be created by formulas like date() from string or separate arguments.

Operators
Default operators use standard C++/JavaScript syntax:
Arithmetic: + (add, both numbers and strings), - (subtract), * (multiply), / (divide), % (modulo)
Logical: && (logical and), || (logical OR), ! (logical not)
Bit: & (bit AND), | (bit OR), ^ (bit XOR), ~ (bit negate), << (bit shift left), >> (bit shift right)
Compare: == (equals), != (not equals), < (less), <= (less or equal), > (greater), >= (greater or equal)
Condition: ?: (three arguments, condition?result_true:result_false)
Special MS Excel operators: = (equals), <> (not equals), ^ (power), & (concatenate strings), % (percent, = *100), ! (external reference)
The operators ^ & % ! have different meaning in MS Excel and JavaScript, by default since 13.0 the MS Excel meaning is used. It can be changed in <Lang><FormulaOperators/><Lang>.
Priority of operators is the same as in JavaScript and cannot be changed. You can always use parenthesis ( ) to change the priority.
All the operators are defined in <Lang><FormulaOperators/><Lang>, it is possible to modify, add or delete the operators.

Constants
There are defined constants: pi (3.14), ln2 (ln(2)), ln10 (ln(10)), log2e (log2(e)), log10e (log10(e)), sqrt2 (sqrt(2)), sqrt1_2 (1/sqrt(2)), null (nothing).
All the constants are defined in <Lang><FormulaConstants/><Lang>, it is possible to modify, add or delete the constants.

Cell references
In the formulas there can be addressed any the grid cell as Row.Name (or Row.id) + Col.SearchNames (or column name).
For example, <C Name="AB"/> <C Name="BC"/> <C Name="XY" ... <I id="20" XY="=AB20+BC20" />

Cell range references
In the formulas there can be addressed any range of cells in grid as CornerCell : OppositeCornerCell or Column1 : Column2 or Row1 : Row2
For example, <C Name="AB"/> <C Name="BC"/> <C Name="XY" ... <I id="20" XY="=sum(AB5:BC19,1:3)+AB20+100" />
The range separator : is defined by FormulaRangeSeparator.
Since 13.0 It is possible to get intersection of cell ranges by operator space, e.g. XY="=sum(A1:D5 A2:D8)". The operator space is defined by FormulaIntersectionSeparator.

External references
It is possible to refer also cells or cells ranges in other sheet in the same xlsx by "!" operator. Since 14.0 the sheet name is case insensitive.
If the sheet name contains spaces, it must be quoted. For example XY='="Sheet 1"!A1:A2'.
External references to other xlsx files are not supported!

Functions
It is possible to use more than 200 predefined functions.
The functions have MS Excel English names and syntax and are completely different from the data (not editable) formula functions, although they can have the same name!
For example sum function in data usage and in editable usage.
In the function arguments it is possible to pass one string in "" or number as is, one cell value as R1C1, cell values range as R1C1:R2C2, the whole column(s) as C1:C2, the whole row(s) as R1:R2 or any function call.
The arguments in the function call are separated by comma, it can be changed by FormulaValueSeparator.
For example, <C Name="AB"/> <C Name="BC"/> <C Name="XY" ... <I id="20" XY="=sum(AB5:BC19,1:3)+AB20+100" />
See the Functions list

Localization
The values in formula during editing are localized, they are affected by <Format> settings like DecimalSeparator and InputDecimalSeparators and formula special locale settings like FormulaValueSeparator, FormulaRangeSeparator, FormulaIntersectionSeparator and FormulaPrefix.
For example if the system has set comma as decimal separator, the decimal numbers in the formula show comma. In this case the function parameter separator FormulaValueSeparator should be set to semicolon.
The function names can be localized (translated) in <Lang><FormulaFunctions /></Lang, for example <Lang><FormulaFunctions sum="localsum" /></Lang>
The input and output xml/json data can contain localized or English formulas according to FormulaLocal setting, default is English.

White spaces
All white spaces are automatically removed from formula, except from strings.

Compatibility with MS Excel 2016
The editable formulas are compatible with MS Excel formula syntax and function names.
The MS Excel array formulas are not implemented yet.
The external references to other workbook are not implemented. Note, references to other sheets are supported.
TreeGrid does not differ between error and N/A.
TreeGrid Auto type does not recognize special boolean type, as boolean there used values 0 and 1, although constants and functions TRUE and FALSE are available.
There are implemented 243 more frequent MS Excel functions. But next 201 less frequent and special MS Excel functions are not implemented yet, they can be implemented as custom functions or on request:

new 12.0 <Cfg> int

FormulaEditing

[0]
If set, the grid supports calculated formulas in cells. The formulas can be entered into cell by editing. Or in input data in the cell value with '=' or in EFormula cell attribute.
If set to 1, the formula is uploaded in cell value with '=' and the formula result is not uploaded.
If set to 2, the formula is uploaded in EFormula attribute (without '=') and the formula result in the cell value. Set also <treegrid>/<bdo> Upload_Attrs="*EFormula,...." to upload the EFormula attribute.
new 12.0 upd 15.0 <Cfg> int

FormulaRelative

[0]
If and how the cells can be referenced relatively to the formula source cell.

0
The cell references are only absolute, they refer to exact row and column and don't change after the row or column is moved or deleted.
All the cell references are set as ColRow or RowCol (e.g. A1 or A1:B5).
The row is identified by row Name, value in NameCol or row id.
Column is identified by any value in its SearchNames or the column Name.

1 or 2
The cell references are relative to the cell with the formula or absolute.
The absolute reference is with "$" prefix, it can be changed by FormulaAbsolute.
For example "A1:B3" is relative, "$A$1:$B$3" is absolute, "$A1:$B3" is absolute column, relative row, "A$1:B$3" is relative column, absolute row.
Both the absolute and relative references are updated when the row or column is moved or deleted.
The relative references are updated The rows and columns are identified by their position, the rows by value in RowIndex, the columns by value in ColIndex.
If the RowIndex is not defined, it is automatically added as new column named "Index".
If the ColIndex is not defined, it is automatically set to the main Header row and defined with ColIndexChars = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ".
1The cell references are the same (ColRow / $Col$Row) also in input and output data.
2 The cell references in input and output data are in special format:
RxCx for absolute reference where x is row or column position from the top left corner from 1.
R[x]C[x] for relative. Where x is the cell position relative to the cell with formula, 1 means next cell, -1 means previous cell.
RC for the same row or column.
The references can be mixes, e.g. R1C means the first row in the same column, R[-2]C5 means two rows above the row and the fifth column.
It counts only rows / columns with RowIndex / ColIndex set. It counts rows / cols regardless on FormulaCanUse value.
Since 15.0 If loading xlsx file, FormulaRelative is always set to 1. Prior 15.0 it was set to 2.
new 12.0 <Cfg> bool

FormulaLocal

new 15.1 <Cfg> bool

FormulaPlusNumbers

[0]
If set to 0, the operator + can be used also to concatenate strings. Using + between string and number will result to string! Including empty strings (cells)!
If set to 1, the operator + is used to add up numbers. If the operator + is used for not empty string, it leads to NaN. If used for empty string (cell), it uses it as 0.
new 12.0 upd 15.0 <C><I><cell> int

FormulaCanEdit

[1]
If the cell or cells in row or column can accept its Formula by entering its value starting with "=".
Since 15.0 if set to 2 the formula can be edited also if the grid has locked formulas by Locked="formula".

2.bit (&2)If the order in cell reference is strict. 0 - both the orders can be used in input and the result is converted to selected order, 2 - only selected order can be entered
3.bit (&4)(changed 13.0) Letter case conversion of formula items (cell references, functions, operators, constants) for editing. 0 - to upper case, 4 - to lower case.
4.bit (&8)If permits spaces in function or cell names. If permitted, textual operators (like AND) are restricted.
5.bit (&16)(new 13.0) Letter case conversion of formula items (cell references, functions, operators, constants) for data. 0 - to upper case, 16 - to lower case.
The Row is RowIndex value if set FormulaRelative, otherwise it is Name attribute, or if it is not set, the row cell value in NameCol or if it is not set, the row id attribute.
The Col is ColIndex value if set FormulaRelative, otherwise it is one of the items in column SearchNames attribute, or if it is not set, the column Name attribute.

Custom functions in editable formulas

Since 13.0 the JavaScript function name must be lower case!
Define the custom function as global JavaScript function and assign its name in <Lang><FormulaFunctions></Lang>.
In the custom function you will get the parameters normally in arguments array.
The one cell and cell ranges parameters are already converted to one dimension array of all the cell values.
The cell range is converted like [R1C1,R1C2,R1C3,...,R2C1,R2C2,R2C3,...].
Every the parameter array has set also properties Rows as array of rows, Cols as array of column names and Grid as calling grid.
Note, the constant string or number parameter is passed as is, without any conversion or properties.

Example, in script:
function mysum(){ // Name must be lower case
for(var i=0,sum=0;i<arguments.length;i++){
   var a = arguments[i]; if(typeof(a)!="object") a = [a];
   for(var j=0;j<a.length;j++) if(a[j]-0) sum += a[j]-0;
   }
return sum;
}
