- List powers of 2 from 1-64
- Calculate the decimal value of said powers (i.e. how many numbers can be represented in binary)
So far I have:
- Ensured the cells are formatted for "Number", "General".
- Chose font "Cambria Math". (It shouldn't matter for simple integers, should it?)
- Verified that "View > Cell contents > AutoCalculate" is checked (it already was).
- Verified that "Tools > Options > OpenOffice Calc > View > Formulas" is un-checked (it already was).
- Changed "Tools > Options > OpenOffice Calc > View > Value highlighting" to checked.
- Tried pressing "F9" on my keyboard.
- Tried clicking "View > Cell contents > Recalculate".
- Used the Formula Wizard to ensure the formula is valid and the wizard displays correct results (it does).
The number cells display nothing, but if I click each cell I see the correct formula in the formula bar.
FYI, (text) headers are in A1-B1 (merged), A2 and B2. So my 64 rows are 3-66.
I handcoded A3 to: =1
I pasted into A4-A66 formula from wizard: =SUM($A3;1)
I verified (clicking cell and looking at formula bar) that other rows really got: =SUM($A5;1) ... =SUM($A66;1)
I pasted into B3-B66 formula from wizard: =POWER(2;$B3)
I verified that other rows really got: =POWER(2;$B4) ... =POWER(2;$B66)
So all the formulas got pasted correctly, using the proper row numbers. But nothing displays in cells.
This is straightforward, but I'll upload the file anyway.
