I have not taken a look at Calc. But when I was using some formulae in Excell I had to try to figure out what they were. Some of us who studied Math ( I did and I am no mathematician) remember some and need a little hint about it. Also, I find that sometimes to write the formula different methods have to be used to set it up for the computer of maybe it is the application. I use to use **x to use for powers of a number. That is when a number is used as a factor x times.Rick Barnes wrote:
I'm not sure. My general feeling was that if someone needed the function they would know how to use it. I think an example of a vlookup would be nice.On Sat, 2005-04-02 at 11:21 -0600, Peter Kupfer wrote:

Thanks Peter,
It's amazing how wrong the Help system is...and, Jean would have a fit with the grammar.
Hopefully you reported the more egregious errors to Issuezilla.
Not yet, it is next in the process. :)
If you have any comments or questions about my notes, let me know.
Otay...
BTW, I think examples of the functions would be a bit much in the Appendix. I am going to add some to the Functions and Formulas chapter. Do you have any favorite functions, or a good formula that you would like to see described with an example in the chapter?
Maybe also some examples of the date# versus an actual date.
Not much else I can thing of.
