The
shift
function copies a base column and shifts it up or down by a
specified number of elements. Use
to define a column header
with the syntax:
shift
(column
[,integer])
For example, for a two-element shift up and down:
The
cumSum
function returns a cumulative sum of the elements in a
base column. Use
to define a column header with the syntax:
cumSum
(column)
For example:
Using Shift and CumSum Functions in a Column Header
When defining a column header, you can use the
shift
and
cumSum
functions as described below. These descriptions
differ slightly from Appendix A. This section describes how to
use the functions in the Data/Matrix Editor. Appendix A gives a
more general description for the Home screen or a program.
Using the Shift
Function
Note:

Number of elements to shift (positive shifts up;
negative shifts down). Default is
ë
1.
c2=shift(c1,2)
c3=shift(c1,
ë
2)
Shifted columns have the same
length as the base column (c1).
First two elements of c1 shift up and out the top;
undefined elements shift into the bottom.
Last two elements of c1 shift down and out the
bottom; undefined elements shift into the top.
c2=cumSum(c1)
