MINICEL

A minimal excel command line applcation, that takes in a csv file and outputs a result file where formulas are parsed.

The following input :

A      ,B
1      ,2
3      ,4
=A1+B1 ,=A2+B2

Should result in the following output:

A      ,B
1      ,2
3      ,4
3      ,7

The program should detect circular references and handle multiple references (i e A1 depends on B1, which in turn depends on D2 etc).

The application is written in Go.
