OpenOffice3.org Calc 3. Mathematical Functions
SUMSQ(number 1; number2 ; …) Function
Returns the sum of the squares of the
numerical values given as arguments. This function returns a numeric value.
Admits minimum 1 and maximum 30 arguments. Each argument can contain a numeric
value or a reference to a range of cells containing the numbers used to
calculate the result. For Example:
=SUMSQ( 4;2) Returns 20, because 4*4 + 2*2 = 20.
=SUMSQ(5) Returns 25. When there is only one number as argument, calculates the
square of that number.
