First off, It's always bugged me that there is no equal sign on th
number pad of my keyboard, it just seems like it's something tha
should be included in that set of keys
The other day I found that you can use + or - instead o
= to perform simple calculations. For instance if yo
wanted to find the solution to 15*30 you could type +15*30 instead o
=15*30. The same is true with -, so if you type -2+4 you get 2.
Also if you type - instead of = for more complex functions, Exce
automatically adds that equal sign and negates the answer.
*This may not seem like a big deal and I'm not sure if anyone else ha
ever posted it (I didn't come up with any search results) but since
stumbled across it a couple days ago I've found it prett
useful/interesting so I just wanted to pass it along
