Users can enable/disable iterative calculation in the workbook options.
When iterative calculation is disabled, all the circular referenced cells will have 0 for the value, and the other cells referencing them will be 0.
When iterative calculation is enabled, all the circular references will calculate iteratively until all the value changes are smaller than the iterativeCalculationMaximumChange or the iteratation count is iterativeCalculationMaximumIterations.
API is as follows:
iterativeCalculation: Enable or Disable the Iterative Calculation
iterativeCalculationMaximumIterations: The Maximum Iterations when Iterative Calculation, default value is 1000, value range is 1~32767
iterativeCalculationMaximumChange: The Maximum Change when Iterative Calculation, default 0.01, value range is 0~MaxDouble(1.79769313486232e308)
The isCircularReference property is added for the Events.UserFormulaEntered, it will be true if user entered a circular reference. For example:
You can get all the circular references in the workbook by function getCircularReference. For example:
