# Formulas

This section describes the formulas available to users for on-the-fly data analysis. The formula editor allows end users to add formula-based columns to their SuperTables view using the measures and dimensions available to them.

#### Formatting options

Formulas can be formatted as a decimal number, currency or percentage. The amount of decimals can be edited, as well as the pre-and-suffix appended to the calculated measure.

#### IF/ELSE configuration

Using the If-Else Formula Editor, advanced formulas can be created using conditions for both strings and values. Set the “if” statement, calculations for when the condition is and isn’t met, and potential other “if” statements using additional “else-if” blocks. Advanced conditions using AND/OR clauses can also be set in these formulas.
