SpreadSheetPlugin < TWiki

---+ TWiki Spreadsheet Plugin

This Plugin adds speadsheet capabilities to %WIKITOOLNAME% topics. Formulas like ==%<nop>CALC{"$INT(7/3)"}%== are evaluated at page view time. They can be placed in table cells and outside of tables.

Example:

| *Region:* | *Sales:* |
| Northeast |  320 |
| Northwest |  580 |
| South     |  240 |
| Europe    |  610 |
| Asia      |  220 |
| Total:    |  %CALC{"$SUM( $ABOVE() )"}% |

The formula next to "Total" is ==%<nop>CALC{"$SUM( $ABOVE() )"}%==. <br /> (you see the formula instead of the sum in case the Plugin is not installed or not enabled.)


---++ Syntax Rules

   * The formula in the ==%<nop>CALC{"formula"}%== variable can contain built-in functions
   * Built-in function are of format ==$<nop>FUNCNAME(parameter)%==
   * Functions may be nested, e.g. ==%<nop>CALC{"$SUM( R2:C$COLUMN(0)..R$ROW(-1):C$COLUMN(0) )"}%==
   * Functions are evaluated from left to right, and from inside to outside if nested
   * The function parameter can be text; a mathematical formula; a cell address; or a range of cell addresses
   * Multiple parameters form a list; they are separated by a comma, followed by optional space, e.g. ==%<nop>CALC{"$SUM( 3, 5, 7 )"}%==
   * A table cell can be addressed as ==R1:C1==. Table address matrix:
     | ==R1:C1== | ==R1:C2== | ==R1:C3== | ==R1:C4== |
     | ==R2:C1== | ==R2:C2== | ==R2:C3== | ==R2:C4== |
   * A table cell range is defined by two cell addresses separated by ==".."==, e.g. "row 1 through 20, column 3" is: ==R1:C3..R20:C3==
   * Lists can refer to values and/or table cell ranges, e.g. ==%<nop>CALC{"$SUM( 3, 5, $T(R1:C7), R1:C11..R1:C15 )"}%==
   * Formulae can only reference cells in the current or preceeding row of the current table; they may not reference cells below the current table row 
   * Formulae can also be placed outside of tables; they can reference cells in the preceeding table

---++ Built-in Functions

| =="$COUNTSTR(list, str)"== | Counts the number of cells in a list equal to a given string (if str is specified), or counts the number of non empty cells in a list. Example: To count the number of non empty cells above the current cell, write ==%<nop>CALC{"$COUNTSTR( $ABOVE() )"}%==; to count the number of cells equal to ==DONE==, write ==%<nop>CALC{"$COUNTSTR( $ABOVE(), DONE )"}%==; |

| =="$EVAL(formula)"== | Evaluates a simple formula. Only addition, substraction, multiplication, division and modulus of numbers are supported. Any nesting is permitted. Example: ==%<nop>CALC{"$EVAL( (5 * 3) / 2 + 1.1 )"}%== returns ==8.6== |
| =="$EXACT(text1, text2)"== | Compares two text strings and returns ==1== if they are exactly the same, or ==0== if not. Example: ==%<nop>CALC{"$EXACT( foo, Foo )"}%== returns ==0==; ==%<nop>CALC{"$EXACT( foo, $LOWER(Foo) )"}%== returns ==1== |
| =="$FIND(search_string, text, start_index)"== | Finds one text string =search_string=, within another text string =text=, and returns the number of the starting position of =search_string=, from the first character of =text=. This search is case sensitive and is not a regular expression search; use =$SEARCH()= for regular expression searching. Starting position is 1; an empty string is returned if nothing is matched.

Date is assumed to be server time; add =GMT= to indicate Greenwich time zone. See also =$TIME()=, =$TODAY()=, =$FORMATGMTIME()=, =$TIMEDIFF()=.

| =="$IF(condition, value if true, value if 0)"== | Returns one value if a condition is met, and another value if not. The condition can be a number (where ==0== means condition not met), or two numbers with a comparison operator ==&lt;== (less than), ==&lt;=<nop>== (less than or equal), ==<nop>==<nop>== (equal), ==<nop>!=<nop>== (not equal), ==&gt;=<nop>== (greater than or equal), ==&gt;== (greater than). Examples:%BR% ==%<nop>CALC{"$IF( $T(R1:C5) > 1000, Over Budget, OK )"}%== returns ==Over Budget== if value in R1:C5 is over 1000, ==OK== if not%BR% ==%<nop>CALC{"$IF( $EXACT($T(R1:C2),), empty, $T(R1:C2) )"}%== returns the content of R1:C2 or ==empty== if empty%BR% ==%<nop>CALC{"$SET(val, $IF( $T(R1:C2) == 0, zero, $T(R1:C2) ))"}%== sets a variable conditionally |

The default unit is days; units are indicated by a ==h==, ==hours==, ==d==, ==days==, ==w==, ==weeks== suffix. One week is assumed to have 5 working days, one day 8 hours. Example: ==%<nop>CALC{"$SUMDAYS( 2w, 1, 2d, 4h )"}%== returns ==13.5==, the evaluation of =(2*5 + 1 + 2 + 4/8)= |
