- Codidact's Software Development has multiple tags for spreadsheet formulas:
- - `excel-formula`
- - `libreoffice-calc-formula`
- - `openoffice-calc-formula`
- - `sheets-formula`
- It has `formula` with the tag usage guidance saying "DO NOT USE" as "formula" is an ambiguous tag name. I agree with that.
AFAIK all the related spreadsheet applications use the same spreadsheet syntax. Also, all share several spreadsheet function names that work the same way; actually, the spreadsheet applications can save files in a spreadsheet format compatible with other applications and some of them are able to open files from file formats originally created to be used by other spreadsheet applications.- I suggest creating the tag `spreadsheet-formula` and merging the above tags with this new tag. This will make it easier to handle questions about basic spreadsheet formulas that are compatible with all spreadsheet applications.
