Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for automatically translating one or more electronic spreadsheets into scripts. One or more electronic spreadsheets containing data arrays and formula arrays may be accessed. The electronic spreadsheet(s) may implement various logic using the data arrays and the formula arrays. The range(s) of the formula arrays may be determined. The range(s) of the data arrays may be determined based on the range(s) of the formula arrays. Conversion ranges may be determined based on the range(s) of formula arrays and the range(s) of data arrays. One or more dependencies between the conversion ranges may be determined and used to generate source code modeling the logic implemented by the electronic spreadsheet(s).
