Converts the given text into number using the specified delimiters.
Syntax
text: The text to be converted in to a number. Eg., "1.000,09"
decimal_separator: The character used as a decimal separator in the given text. Eg., The decimal separator in "10,09" is ","
group_separator: The character used as a group separator in the given text. Eg., The group separator in "1,000.09" is ","
Remarks
When the decimal_separator and group_separator values are not given, separators from the current locale are used.
If the decimal_separator or group_separator value has multiple characters, the first character is considered.
If the given text is empty (""), the result is given as 0.
Any space in the given text will be removed, irrespective of its position.
If the group separator occurs before the decimal separator in the given text, the group separator is ignored.
If the given text ends with one or more percent signs (%), the percent signs are used for the calculation of the function result. When there are more than one percent signs, they are taken in an additive manner, as in any other function/formula. Eg., =NUMBERVALUE("5%%") is same as =5%%, which is 0.0005.
Examples
Formula | Result |
=NUMBERVALUE(A2;B2;C2) | 1000.09 |
=NUMBERVALUE(A4;B4;C4) | 0.25 |
