3 Formulas
Example of the formula = IF(TRUE, 1, 2). The formula contains spaces before the function identifier and
before the second and third parameter.
Offset Size Token name Description
0 2 tBool The condition of the IF function: the constant true
2 4 tAttrIf Distance to start of false parameter: 7+4 = 11 bytes
6 4 tAttrSpace Leading spaces for the next token (the true parameter)
10 3 tInt True parameter of the IF function: the integer constant 1
13 4 tAttrSkip Distance to position behind tFuncVar(IF) token (minus 1):
7+12–1 = 18 bytes
17 4 tAttrSpace Leading spaces for the next token (the false parameter)
21 3 tInt False parameter of the IF function: the integer constant 2
24 4 tAttrSpace Leading spaces for the next token (the function identifier).
Note that the tAttrSpace tokens related to the function itself
are located before the tAttrSkip token!
28 4 tAttrSkip Distance to position behind tFuncVar(IF) token (minus 1):
4–1 = 3 bytes.
32 4 tFuncVar(IF) Identifier of the IF function, function with 3 parameters
Example of the formula = IF(TRUE, 1). The formula contains spaces before the function identifier and the
second parameter.
Offset Size Token name Description
0 2 tBool The condition of the IF function: the constant true
2 4 tAttrIf Distance to start of tFuncVar(IF) token: 7+8 = 15 bytes
6 4 tAttrSpace Leading spaces for the next token (the true parameter)
10 3 tInt True parameter of the IF function: the integer constant 1
13 4 tAttrSpace Leading spaces for the next token (the function identifier).
Note that the tAttrSpace tokens related to the function itself
are located before the tAttrSkip token!
17 4 tAttrSkip Distance to position behind tFuncVar(IF) token (minus 1):
4–1 = 3 bytes
21 4 tFuncVar(IF) Identifier of the IF function with 3 parameters
