Spreadsheet with unit parsing

Abstract:

A system for parsing units of measure for spreadsheet cell values includes a processor. The processor is to host a spreadsheet document; receive a cell value entered into a cell of the spreadsheet document; parse the cell value to determine whether the cell value includes at least a measure and a unit of measure; and associate a valid measure and a valid unit of measure with the cell in the event that the measure and the unit of measure are valid.
