# Function parity: worksheet functions and formulas

| Date | Change | Summary |
|---|---|---|
| 2026-10-14 | minor | Long flat operator chains (#916): 4,096 operands (Excel's 8,192-character limit) no longer overflow the stack when entered, filled, adjusted or saved; chains past 64 operands are no longer saved as dynamic-array formulas; Spanish entry no longer refuses chains past 256 operands |

| 2026-10-15 | minor | MEDIAN and AGGREGATE median use an overflow-safe midpoint (#1579); regressions cover finite extremes, tiny values and dependent recalculation |
| 2026-10-13 | minor | Clear reports changed stored cells sparsely, including those beyond the first million coordinates; dependent formulas and removed spills update, while clearing empty merges still unblocks spills (#1032) |
| 2026-10-12 | minor | USDOLLAR added as a Compatibility function (not on Microsoft's list, so the counts don't change); MIRR with no positive flow is -1, COUNTIF's bare `"<="` / `">="` skip empty strings, INDIRECT with `a1` = FALSE gives `#REF!` for A1-style text (#738) |
