i. If a formula input can change, put it into a cell and
refer to it in the formula with a cell reference.
ii. If a formula input will not change, you can type it
into a formula (like 12 months in a year or 7 days in a
week).
iii. Always label your formula inputs so that the formula
input can be clearly understood by any user of the
spreadsheet solution; by doing this we properly
document the spreadsheet solution.
