Inputting a Constant

A constant is data whose value is defined when it is input. When you input something into a
cell for which text is specified as the data type without an equal sign (=) at the beginning, a
numeric value is treated as a constant and non-numeric values are treated as text.

Note the following examples for cells of u type:

• When text is too long to fit in a cell, it spills over into the next cell to the right if the

neighboring cell is empty. If the cell to the right is not empty, the text is cut off and “...” is
displayed to indicate that non-displayed text is contained in the cell.

of values based on the calculated results of the expression.
