Here the breakdown of a regular expression (RegEx).
^\s*$
The term, ^\s*$, is a regular expression pattern often used in programming and text processing. Let's break down what this pattern means:
^: This symbol represents the beginning of a line or string.
\s*: This part of the pattern represents any whitespace character (like spaces or tabs), and the * indicates that there can be zero or more occurrences of whitespace.
$: This symbol represents the end of a line or string.
When combined, the ^\s*$ pattern represents an empty line, i.e., a line that contains only whitespace characters (spaces, tabs, etc.) or is completely blank.
If you were to use this pattern in the "Find and Replace" feature of Google Sheets:
"Find": ^\s*$
"Replace with": [whatever you want to replace the empty lines with]
Using this pattern, Google Sheets would search for empty lines (lines that consist only of whitespace) in your spreadsheet and replace them with the text you specify in the "Replace with" field.
Here's a breakdown of the formula.
=CHAR(RANDBETWEEN(65,90))
RANDBETWEEN(65,90): This function generates a random whole number between 65 and 90, inclusive. The numbers 65 and 90 correspond to the ASCII values of the uppercase letters 'A' and 'Z' in the English alphabet.
CHAR(...): The CHAR function takes a numeric value (an ASCII code) as its argument and returns the corresponding character. For example, CHAR(65) returns the character 'A', CHAR(66) returns 'B', and so on.
So, when you combine these two functions in the formula =CHAR(RANDBETWEEN(65,90)):
RANDBETWEEN(65,90) generates a random number between 65 and 90.
CHAR(...) converts the random number into a character based on its ASCII value.
Overall, this formula generates a random uppercase letter from 'A' to 'Z' each time you recalculate the worksheet or update the cell containing the formula.
