* ROUND Accepts null, false, and true as First Parameter
Issue #1789 was addressed by PR #1799. In a follow-up discussion,
it came to light that ROUND was not handling the unexpected case where the
first parameter is an empty cell in the same manner that Excel does.
Subsequent investigation showed that a boolean first parameter is permitted.
I broadened my investigation to include the following related functions.
- ROUNDUP
- ROUNDDOWN
- MROUND
- TRUNC
- INT
- FLOOR
- FLOOR.MATH
- FLOOR.PRECISE
- CEILING
- CEILING.MATH
- CEILING.PRECISE
All of these allow a NULL first parameter, and all except MROUND allow boolean.
For completeness, I will note that all treat null string as invalid.
I suspect there are other functions which permit
similarly unexpected parameters, but I consider them out of scope for this PR.
CEILING.MATH and CEILING.PRECISE were unimplemented, and are now supported
as part of this PR.
The tests for each of these functions have been re-coded, though all the original
test data is still included in the test cases, plus several new cases for each.
The new tests now take place as a user would invoke the functions,
through a spreadsheet cell rather than a
direct call to the appropriate function within Calculation/MathTrig.
Aside from being more realistic, the new tests are also more complete.
For example, FLOOR.MATH can take from 1-3 arguments, and the existing tests
confirmed that the function in Calculation could handle a single argument.
However, the function list in Calculation.php erroneously set the number of
arguments for FLOOR.MATH to exactly 3, so, if a user tried to get the calculated
result of a cell containing FLOOR.MATH(1.2), the result would be an Exception.
Aside from the parameter support, there are a few minor code changes.
Ods, as well as Gnumeric, allows the omission of the second parameter for
FLOAT and CEILING; Excel does not. A potential divide-by-zero error is
avoided in CEILING, FLOOR, and FLOORMATH.
I will note that it would probably be beneficial in terms of maintainability
to break MathTrig up into many individual modules. The same would hold for the
other Calculation modules. I would be willing to look into this if you agree
that it would be worthwhile.
* Problems Using Builtin PHP Functions Directly As Excel Functions
This fixes issue #1789.
As originally reported, stricter typing was causing PHP8 to throw
an exception when a non-numeric value was passed to the Round function.
Previous releases of PHP did not see this problem, however, on further
analysis, they were also incorrect in returning 0 as the result in the
erroneous situation, when they should have been returning a VALUE error.
Yet more analysis showed that other functions would also have problems,
and, in addition, might not handle invalid input (e.g. a negative length
passed to REPT) or output (e.g. NAN in the case of ACOS(2)) correctly.
The following MathTrig functions are affected:
ABS, ACOS, ACOSH, ASIN, ASINH, ATAN, ATANH,
COS, COSH, DEGREES (rad2deg), EXP, LN (log), LOG10,
RADIANS (deg2rad), REPT (str_repeat), SIN, SINH, SQRT, TAN, TANH.
One TextData function (REPT) is also affected.
This change lets PhpSpreadsheet validate the input for each of these
functions before passing control to the builtin, and handle the output
afterwards.
There were no explicit tests for any of these functions, a fact made
easy to ignore by the fact that PhpSpreadsheet delegated the heavy
lifting to PHP itself for these cases. A full suite of tests is
now added for each of the affected functions.
* Scrutinizer Recommendations
Only in 3 modules which are part of this PR.
* Improved Handling of Tan(PI/2)
Return DIV0 error for TAN when COS is very small.
* Additional Trig Tests
Results which should be infinity, i.e. DIV/0 error.
