All the results which depend on the value of A2 are now updated. 2 : 20 PITCH:10 2 22 18 40 10 400 Order of calculation of a formula Calculation of a formula is performed in the order of precedence of the operators: the + or - sign is first attributed to the operand directly to the sign's right, next exponentiations are carried out, then multiplication and divisions, and finally, additions and subtractions. Example: 2#3*4-2 8*4-2 32-2 30 When two or more operators have the same order of precedence (multiplication and divisions, or addition and subtraction), calculation is carried out from left to right. Examples: 1+3+4-2 4+4-2 8-2 6 2#3#2 8#2 64 To modify the order of calculation, you may use pairs of parentheses. The formula in parentheses is calculated first. Examples: 1+3*4 1+12 13 (1+3)*4 4*4 16 Parentheses can be nested. Calculation proceeds from the innermost pair of parentheses. 133HSOV3IldS 94

Order
of
calculation
of
a
formula
Calculation
of
a
formula
is
performed
in
the
order
of
precedence
of
the
opera-
tors:
the
+
or
-
sign
is
first
attributed
to
the
operand
directly
to
the
sign's
right,
next
exponentiations
are
carried
out,
then
multiplication
and
divisions,
and
finally,
additions
and
subtractions.
Example:
2#3*4-2
8*4-2
32-2
30
When
two
or
more
operators
have
the
same
order
of
precedence
(multiplication
and
divisions,
or
addition
and
subtraction),
calculation
is
carried
out
from
left
to
right.
Examples:
133HSOV3IldS
1+3+4-2
2#3#2
4+4-2
8#2
8-2
64
6
To
modify
the
order
of
calculation,
you
may
use
pairs
of
parentheses.
The
for-
mula
in
parentheses
is
calculated
first.
Examples:
1+3*4
(1+3)*4
1+12
4*4
13
16
Parentheses
can
be
nested.
Calculation
proceeds
from
the
innermost
pair
of
parentheses.
