Documentation/How Tos/Calc: GESTEP function

GESTEP

Returns 1 if a number is greater than or equal to a step number, or 0 otherwise.

This function is only available if the Analysis AddIn is installed.

Syntax:

GESTEP(number; stepnumber)

returns 1 if number is greater than or equal to stepnumber (both being numbers). If stepnumber is omitted it is assumed to be 0.

Example:

GESTEP(4; 5)

returns 0.

GESTEP(4; A1)

where cell A1 contains 4, returns 1.

GESTEP(2)

returns 1, because 2 is greater than 0.

=A1>=5

in a cell, where cell A1 contains 4, shows FALSE, as 4 is not greater than or equal to 5. This approach is very similar to GESTEP but does not trap non-numeric arguments.
