- Field Detail
  - formatter
```
protected static final DataFormatter formatter
```
  - CHAR
```
public static final Function CHAR
```
    Returns the character specified by a number.
  - LEN
```
public static final Function LEN
```
  - LOWER
```
public static final Function LOWER
```
  - UPPER
```
public static final Function UPPER
```
  - PROPER
```
public static final Function PROPER
```
    Implementation of the PROPER function: Normalizes all words (separated by non-word characters) by making the first letter upper and the rest lower case. This is nearly equivalent to toTitleCase if the Java language had it
  - TRIM
```
public static final Function TRIM
```
    An implementation of the TRIM function: Removes leading and trailing spaces from value if evaluated operand value is string. Since POI 5.1.0, this also trims double spaces so that only 1 is kept (https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=65230). Author: Manda Wilson < wilson at c bio dot msk cc dot org >
  - CLEAN
```
public static final Function CLEAN
```
    An implementation of the CLEAN function: In Excel, the Clean function removes all non-printable characters from a string. Author: Aniket Banerjee(banerjee@google.com)
  - MID
```
public static final Function MID
```
    An implementation of the MID function
    MID returns a specific number of characters from a text string, starting at the specified position.
    Syntax:
    MID(text, start_num, num_chars)
    Author: Manda Wilson < wilson at c bio dot msk cc dot org >
  - LEFT
```
public static final Function LEFT
```
  - RIGHT
```
public static final Function RIGHT
```
  - CONCAT
```
public static final FreeRefFunction CONCAT
```
  - CONCATENATE
```
public static final Function CONCATENATE
```
  - EXACT
```
public static final Function EXACT
```
  - TEXT
```
public static final Function TEXT
```
    An implementation of the TEXT function
    TEXT returns a number value formatted with the given number formatting string. This function is not a complete implementation of the Excel function, but handles most of the common cases. All work is passed down to DataFormatter to be done, as this works much the same as the display focused work that that does. Syntax:
    TEXT(value, format_text)
  - FIND
```
public static final Function FIND
```
    Implementation of the FIND() function.
    Syntax:
    FIND(find_text, within_text, start_num)
    FIND returns the character position of the first (case sensitive) occurrence of find_text inside within_text. The third parameter, start_num, is optional (default=1) and specifies where to start searching from. Character positions are 1-based.

  - SEARCH
```
public static final Function SEARCH
```
    Implementation of the FIND() function.
    Syntax:
    SEARCH(find_text, within_text, start_num)
    SEARCH is a case-insensitive version of FIND()

  - evaluateIntArg
```
protected static int evaluateIntArg(ValueEval arg,
                                    int srcCellRow,

                                          int srcCellCol)
                                   throws EvaluationException
```
    Throws:
    
    EvaluationException
  - evaluate
```
public final ValueEval evaluate(ValueEval[] args,
                                int srcCellRow,
                                int srcCellCol)
```
    Specified by:
    
    evaluate in interface Function
    
    Parameters:
    
    args - the evaluated function arguments. Empty values are represented with BlankEval or MissingArgEval, never null.
    
    srcCellRow - row index of the cell containing the formula under evaluation
    
    srcCellCol - column index of the cell containing the formula under evaluation
    
    Returns:
    
    The evaluated result, possibly an ErrorEval, never null. Note - Excel uses the error code #NUM! instead of IEEE NaN, so when numeric functions evaluate to Double.NaN be sure to translate the result to ErrorEval.NUM_ERROR.
  - evaluateFunc
```
protected abstract ValueEval evaluateFunc(ValueEval[] args,
                                          int srcCellRow,
                                          int srcCellCol)
                                   throws EvaluationException
