ROWS function

• The function displays #NULL error with arguments as array values.

e.g. ROWS({1,2;3,4;5,6})

Expected result: 3

Observed result: #NULL

ROWS EXPLANATION

This will work only in CALCI as the {} notation for array is useful only in spreadsheet platforms and similar languages. In ZOS arrays are to be indicated by [] and Objects will use {} notation.

Is this correct?

Has been corrected so that true false flag will show inside a cube or on ZOS.

(In ZOS it will show result in the window. In CALCI it will create a new window depending on request flag).

MATCH(lkup_val, lkup_arr, m_type)

Issue: Function does not work in ZOS if lkup_arr represented with {} brackets, whereas works with [ ].

• ZCalci works with both type of array representation {}, [] and displays correct results -

e.g.

• MATCH(44,{40,42,44},1) does not work in ZOS.
• MATCH(44,[40,42,44],1) returns relative position of '44' as 3 in ZOS.

SUBSTITUTE("123456","123","888",1)

HISTOGRAM(SomeArray,BinRange,SomePareToFlag, SomeCumulativeFlag, SomeChartFlag, NewTableFlag)

Propery of NewTableFlag:

• $NewTableFlag$ can be a logical value TRUE or FALSE. If omitted, Calci assumes it to be FALSE.
• If $NewTableFlag$ is TRUE, the result is displayed on new zspace sheet.

Output Observed:

For TRUE, result table in Calci shows (both on new zspace)

• Bin, Frequency columns and
• two more columns showing Bin and Frequency in descending order

For FALSE, Calci displays only Bin and Frequency columns (on new zspace).

MULTINOMIAL

• This function is giving the different answer for the decimals.
• For e.g.,MULTINOMIAL(0,1.2,1.3,1.4,1.5)= 24(Excel) = 120 (CALCI)

STDEV FUNCTIONS

• For standard deviation functions like STDEV,STDEVA,and STDEVPA functions is considering only the logical value TRUE, but it is not taking the value of FALSE.
• i.e., in a logical value FALSE is not taking for the calculation.
• STDEV(10,15,17,FALSE)= 7.593857167(Excel) = 3.60555127(CALCI)which is equal to STDEV(10,15,17)
• STDEVA(12,18,27,32,FALSE)=12.61744824(EXCEL)=8.958236433584458(CALCI)
• Array={2,12,22,32,false}

VAR FUNCTIONS

• For variance functions like VAR,VARA,VARP,and VARPA funtions for logical value TRUE , the result is correct.
• But the logical value FALSE ,the result is different compared with Excel.
• i.e., in a logical value FALSE is not taking for the calculation.
• VAR(10,25,18,FALSE) = 115.5833333(Excel) = 141.592592(CALCI)which is equal to VAR(10,25,18)
• VARA(10,15,20,25,FALSE)=41.666666666(CALCI) = 92.5(Excel)
• VARP(40,61,53,46,FALSE)=449.2(Excel) = 549.2(CALCI)
• VARPA(12,23,34,45,FALSE)=250.96(Excel) = 151.25(CALCI)

ISPRIME

• In this function ,when we assigning decimals it is giving different result.
• For e.g., ISPRIME(5.1)= true.But it is not prime.
• So it should give result as false.
