Hi Folks -- Previously the CNS (complex number string) representation was rather strictly limited to things of the form "1+2," with no spaces allowed. I have written some code to make this much less strict, so that " 1 + 2i " is allowed.
This is consistent with the way the spreadsheet handles arithmetic, as in expressions such as =0+" 3 " This can be used to make complex numbers significantly more readable. OTOH this may introduced compatibility issues. I haven't checked, but I suspect MS XL might be intolerant of spaces in the CNS representation. Is there any policy or any wise lore about what to do if/when there is a conflict between doing the right thing and being XL compatible? _______________________________________________ gnumeric-list mailing list gnumeric-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnumeric-list
