Adding Numbers in Excel?
I have a list of numbers in column A. Let's say those numbers are 5, 10, 15, 20 in cells A1, A2, A3, A4 respectively. In column B I need to add the square of it's cell A counterpart plus all the squares of the numbers before it ('it' being the cell A counterpart).
B1 would be "=A1^2"
B2 would be "=A1^2+A2^2"
B3 would be "=A1^2+A2^2+A3^2"
B4 would be "=A1^2+A2^2+A3^2+A4^2"
Now I have a lot more numbers in column A than just those 4 so I need a formula which I can copy over to the rest of column B. Any ideas?
So there is no way for Excel to add more terms as the cells progress?
