CODE CHALLENGE

The task

  • Create a cli app that parses a csv file, calculates its content
  • The spreadsheet should be able to support:
    • Reverse Polish Notation calculations
      • Implement only the four most common operators: +,-,/ and *
    • References to other cells via letter number notation (A1, BZ987 or AAZ5)
      • Letters refer to columns, numbers to rows
      • The letter system: A,B,C..Z,AA,AB,AC..AZ,BA,BB,BC..ZY,ZZ,AAA,AAB etc…
      • The coordinates start with 1 (not zero)
  • When errors are found, the output for that cell should be #ERR
  • You're not allowed to use any external packages (usage of standard library is allowed)
  • Print the output to stdout

The spreadsheet coordination system should be [Col (alphabetical)][Row (numeric)]

| A1 | B1 | C1 |
----------------
| A2 | B2 | C2 |
----------------
| A3 | B3 | C3 |

Test csv file:

B1 B2 +,2 B2 3 * -,+,26
A1,5,7 2 /,2 20 * 2 / 3 4 + 3 2 * * + 6 - 15 +
C2 3 *,1 B4,5 1 2 + 4 * + 3 -,0.08 6 15 *
5 7 7 - /,67.5 B3 *,-14 A5 +,

Which should output:

-8,-13,#ERR,26
-8,5,3.5,71
10.5,#ERR,14,#ERR
#ERR,#ERR,#ERR,#ERR
