The basics are very simple, but there are some very intricate rules/quirks... For example, the following are valid formulas: `=SUM(IF(TRUE,A2,C7):C10)`

The basics are very simple, but there are some very intricate rules/quirks...
For example, the following are valid formulas:
`=SUM(IF(TRUE,A2,C7):C10)`
`=SUM(A1:B3:C2)`
`=SUM(A1,,,,,,A2)`
`=SUM((A1,A2),A3)` means something different than `=SUM(A1,A2,A3)`, both are valid
`=SUM(A:A 1:1)`
We still have only <<100 production rules while the official Microsoft one has hundreds.
If you don't care about the complicated structures (and our research indicates that they are very rarely used) you can make the grammar a lot simpler.
