Abstract
A system for performing units-based math for spreadsheet cell values includes a processor. The processor is to host a spreadsheet document; parse a formula containing a first measure, a first unit of measure, and an operator; in the event that the first unit of measure and the operator are compatible, determine a resulting measure by applying the operator to the first measure; determine a resulting unit of measure; and associate the resulting measure with the resulting unit of measure.
