Similarly the type checking functions return a Boolean recording whether the argument expression is of a particular type. In Transact-SQL, the functions return zero or one rather than Boolean values True and False. IsArray(name) This function determines whether the variable name passed as its argument is an array.
As an example, VBA code written in Microsoft Access can establish references to the Excel, Word and Outlook libraries; this allows creating an application that – for instance – runs a query in Access, exports the results to Excel and analyzes them, and then formats the output as tables in a Word document or sends them as an Outlook email.
Since the Leszynski naming convention is a special form of Hungarian notation the same general advantages also apply to the Leszynski convention.. The use of distinctive prefixes makes your database self-documenting; when you see frmSales in VBA code, you will know that it references a form, and when you see curSales you will know that it is a Currency variable.
In Microsoft Excel, these functions are defined using Visual Basic for Applications in the supplied Visual Basic editor, and such functions are automatically accessible on the worksheet. Also, programs can be written that pull information from the worksheet, perform some calculations, and report the results back to the worksheet.
Use of a user-defined function sq(x) in Microsoft Excel. The named variables x & y are identified in the Name Manager. The function sq is introduced using the Visual Basic editor supplied with Excel. Subroutine in Excel calculates the square of named column variable x read from the spreadsheet, and writes it into the named column variable y.
The choice of a variable name should be mnemonic — that is, designed to indicate to the casual observer the intent of its use. One-character variable names should be avoided except for temporary "throwaway" variables. Common names for temporary variables are i, j, k, m, and n for integers; c, d, and e for characters. int i;
t may contain some, all or none of the x 1, …, x n and it may contain other variables. In this case we say that function definition binds the variables x 1, …, x n. In this manner, function definition expressions of the kind shown above can be thought of as the variable binding operator, analogous to the lambda expressions of lambda calculus.
Unistat – general statistics package that can also work as Excel add-in; WarpPLS – statistics package used in structural equation modeling; Wolfram Language [6] – the computer language that evolved from the program Mathematica. It has similar statistical capabilities as Mathematica.
