# Formula

Opens a submenu, from which you can insert a formula into the cell of a table. Place the cursor in a cell in the table or at the position in the document where you want the result to appear. Click the Formula icon and choose the desired formula from the submenu.

The formula appears in the input line. To specify a range of cells in a table, select the desired cells with the mouse. The corresponding cell references also appear in the input line. Enter additional parameters, as necessary, and click Apply to confirm your entry. You can also enter the formula directly if you know the appropriate syntax. This is necessary, for example, in the Insert Fields and Edit Fields dialogs.

### معاملات

You can insert various operators in your formula. Choose from the following functions:

Operator | Name | Example
--- | --- | ---
List Separator | | | Separates the elements in a list. Example of using a list: MIN 10|20|50|<C6>|<A2:B6>|20
Equal | EQ or == | Checks if selected values are equal. If they are unequal, the result is zero, otherwise 1 (true) appears. Example: <A1> EQ 2 displays 1, if the content of A1 equals 2
Not Equal | NEQ or != | Tests for inequality between selected values. Example: <A1> NEQ 2 displays 0 (wrong), if the content of A1 equals 2
Less than or Equal | LEQ | Tests for values less than or equal to a specified value. Example: <A1> LEQ 2 displays 1 (true), if the content of A1 is less than or equal to 2
Greater than or Equal | GEQ | Tests for values greater than or equal to a specified value. Example: <A1> GEQ 2 displays 1 (true), if the content of A1 is greater than or equal to 2
Less | L | Tests for values less than a specified value. Example: <A1> L 2 displays 1 (true), if the content of A1 is less than 2
Greater | G | Tests for values greater than a specified value. Example: <A1> G 2 displays 1 (true), if the content of A1 is greater than 2
Boolean Or | OR | Tests for values matching the Boolean OR. Example: 0 OR 0 displays 0 (false), anything else results in 1 (true)
Boolean X Or | XOR | Tests for values matching the Boolean exclusive OR. Example: 1 XOR 0 displays 1 (true)
Boolean And | AND | Tests for values matching the Boolean AND. Example: 1 AND 2 displays 1 (true)
Boolean Not | NOT | Tests for values matching the Boolean NOT. Example: NOT 1 (true) displays 0 (false)
