Oops… I meant it's an ARRAY formula. It's ”matrisformel” in my language, so
I accidently translated ”matris” to ”matrix”, which seems like a good idea,
but there are a lot of words that look like they mean something while they
really mean something quite different… for instance, my language's word
”semester” means vacation and there are a few more examples of words that
also likely could cause some confusion… :P
