Abstract
Embodiments of the invention relate to reducing memory required to store an array of formulas and values corresponding to a formula-array. A set of formula-array representations is provided and arranged in a successive order. Each formula-array representation is evaluated for an associated memory requirement to support use thereof, followed by conversion to a structure of the formula-array representation at a successive level. Selection of the formula-array representation is determined based upon a minimal memory requirement from the formula-array representations in the order.
