JSS Formula Pro

The JSS Formula Pro is a JavaScript software to parse and execute spreadsheet-like formulas. It handles ranges, variables, worksheets, and a great number of formulas available in other spreadsheet software such as Excel or Google Spreadsheet. It deals with the JavaScript precision issues and, it is compatible with Jspreadsheet Pro plugins.

This plugin is distributed in two different versions: basic and pro.

Precision

JSS Formula Premium has an adjustPrecision flag to help with JS rounding problems. The solution is based on an adaptative toFixed depending on the number of decimals.

// Activate the precision adjust
formula.adjustPrecision = true;

formula('37.02 + 2.56');
// Without adjustPrecision: 39.580000000000005
// With adjustPrecision: 39.58

formula('185.32 - 84.78');
// Without adjustPrecision: 100.53999999999999
// With adjustPrecision: 100.54

formula('25.92 * 3.33');
// Without adjustPrecision: 86.31360000000001
// With adjustPrecision: 86.3136

formula('9.15 / 6');
// Without adjustPrecision: 1.5250000000000001
// With adjustPrecision: 1.525

NOTE: When this option is enabled, the results will be round in a maximum ten decimal places.

Usage

The formula method receives the expression and the variables that will support the calculations.

@param {string} expression - the formula to be calculated
@param {object} variables - the variables and values necessary to parse the expression
@param {number=} x - a optional coordinate reference
@param {number=} y - a optional coordinate reference

formula(expression: String, variables: Object, [x: Number], [y: Number]) : string|array

Examples

You can run the following tests on the console of the browser when initiation as above.

Range operations

formula('A1:B1*2', { A1: 2, B1: 4 });
// Returns Array[ 4, 8 ]

formula('SUM(A1:B1*2)', { A1: 1, B1: 'A2+B2', A2: 3, B2: 4 })
// Returns 16

formula('SUM(A1:A6)', { A1: 2, A2: 4, A3: 5, A4: 1, A5: 5, A6: 1 });
// Returns 18

formula('AVERAGE(CALCULATION*10)', { CALCULATION: 'A1:A3', A1: 1, A2: 2, A3: 3 })
// Returns 20

formula('SUM(B:B)', { B1: 1, B2: 1, B3: 14 });
// Returns 16

Conditional calculations

formula('IF(B1=0,0,B9/B1)', { B1:0, B9: 3 });
// Returns zero when B1 is zero

formula('IF(true, CALCULATION, 10)', { CALCULATION: 'A1:A3', A1: 1, A2: 2, A3: 3 })
// Returns [[1], [2], [3]]

formula('IF(C16+C15!=0,C13+C14,false)', { C16: 0, C15: 0, C14: 3, C13: 12 })
// Returns false

Comparisions

formula('1*2<1^4');
// Returns false

formula('(1==1)<>(2>2)')
// Returns true

Date calculations

formula('NOW()+1');
// Today + one day

formula('DATE(2021,1,1) > DATE(2021,2,1)');
// false

Cross worksheets

formula('SHEET1!A1*A1', { 'SHEET1!A1': 2, 'A1': 3 });
// Returns 6

formula('SUM(SHEET3!B1:B3)', { 'SHEET3!B1': 3, 'SHEET3!B2': 3, 'SHEET3!B3': 4 });
// Returns 10

formula('SUM(B:B)', { 'B1': 1, 'B2': 2, 'B3': 4 });
// Returns 7

Worksheets operations

formula('SHEET1!A1*10', { SHEET1: [[1,2,3],[4,5,6]] });
// Returns 1 * 10

formula('SHEET1!B1*SHEET2!B1', { SHEET1: [[1,2,3],[4,5,6]], SHEET2: [[10,20,30]] });
// Returns 2 * 20
