…A3:B1:C2` which gives an effective combined range of `A1:C3` or `A5:C10:C20:F1` which gives an effective combined range of `A1:F20`). Next step will be allowing Named Cells/Ranges to be chained in the same way.

It gets awkward when the defined name is for an actual range rather than for an individual named cell; because we need to manipulate the stack when that happens. The code is ugly, and this is a rather simplistic approach, but it works as long as the named range is a cell, a cell range, or even a "chained" range - it won't work if we have union or intersection operators in the defined range - but it does provide formula support that never existed before.

Reference Issue #2730
Support for "chained" range operators in the Calculation Engine (e.g.
A…3:B1:C2which gives an effective combined range ofA1:C3orA5:C10:C20:F1which gives an effective combined range ofA1:F20).Next step will be allowing Named Cells/Ranges to be chained in the same way.
