^ Carrot in a Formula
I am unfamiliar with the ^ Character in a formula. What does it mean: Example: =+IF(T$3840,$C416/12*(1+$C$415)^2,0)+IF(U$384=1,$C416/12*(1+$C$415)^2,0)+IF(V$384=1,$C416/12*(1+$C$415)^2,0) Thank you Ross |

2^2=4 3^3=9 BTW the leading + in your formula is superfluous, it is a throw-back to Lotus 1-2-3.

I think I would have used different numbers in the example <bg:
2^3 = 2*2*2 = 8 3^4 = 3*3*3*3 = 81 Bob Phillips wrote: POWER 2^2=4 3^3=9 BTW the leading + in your formula is superfluous, it is a throw-back to Lotus 1-2-3.
