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.

Please check this in the next release

(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.

MATCH EXPLANATION

See after new release if issue persists.

Match Function Test Comments

{} notation works in spreadsheet platforms. Hence {},[] both work in Calci and [] works in ZOS. This issue can be ignored --- Swapna

MID(txt, snum, noc)

Issue: Returns #NULL error, if 'txt' starts with a number.

e.g.

• MID("123456",2,4) returns NULL.
• MID("A123456",2,4) returns A123

SUBSTITUTE(txt, otxt, ntxt, instnum)

Use: Function is used to replace nth instance of 'otxt' with 'ntxt'. Original string is in 'txt'.

Issue: If the original string starts with number, Calci displays NULL error.

e.g.

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

• Expected result: "888456"
• Observed result: #NULL (In Calci)
• Works well in ZOS.

FVSCHEDULE(Principal, Schedule)

Issue: Calci O/p does not match with that in Excel.

e.g. 1)FVSCHEDULE(2,{0.01,0.56,0.02})

• O/p in Excel: 3.214224
• O/p in Calci:

Principal	Schedule	FVSCHEDULE
2	0.01	2
2	0.56	2
2	0.02	2

TBILLYIELD(SettlementDate, MaturityDate, Price)

Issue: Displays #NULL error for all examples.

• Output in Excel : 0.096241
• Output in ZOS : #NULL (and for any other example)
