Method Detail

evaluate

public ValueEval evaluate(ValueEval[] args,
                          int srcCellRow,
                          int srcCellCol)

Specified by:

evaluate in interface Function

Parameters:

args - the evaluated function arguments. Empty values are represented with BlankEval or MissingArgEval, never null.

srcCellRow - row index of the cell containing the formula under evaluation

srcCellCol - column index of the cell containing the formula under evaluation

Returns:

The evaluated result, possibly an ErrorEval, never null. Note - Excel uses the error code #NUM! instead of IEEE NaN, so when numeric functions evaluate to Double.NaN be sure to translate the result to ErrorEval.NUM_ERROR.

subtotalInstance

public static Count subtotalInstance()

Create an instance of Count to use in Subtotal

If there are other subtotals within argument refs (or nested subtotals), these nested subtotals are ignored to avoid double counting.
