          Assignee: [email protected]
           Summary: LibreOffice Calc's PRODUCT function returns incorrect
                    results in array formula
          Severity: major
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Windows (All)
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 4.0.6.2 release
         Component: Spreadsheet
           Product: LibreOffice

Example: enter following in cells A1:A4: 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4. In cell C1 enter
following array function: {=PRODUCT(1+A1:A4)-1}. Correct answer is 1.4024 =
((1.1)*(1.2)*(1.3)*(1.4))-1. LibreOffice Calc ver. 4.0.6.2 returns answer of
1.1840, which is equivalent to {=PRODUCT(1+A2:A4)-1} or ((1.2)*(1.3)*(1.4))-1.
LibreOffice Calc is performing the computation, but ignoring the first number
in cell A1. The error is not obvious on its face and might not be detected. The
consequences could be devastating for users relying on LibreOffice to perform
critical work.
