<pre>This is not a bug.
First of all, you do not describe where exactly you put the formula "In a
neighboring cell". However, it's clear that you don't read the article that you
cite.
I suppose that you see this:
If you put the formula to B1, you see 0
If you put the formula to B2, you see -56
If you put the formula to B4, you see 0
If you put the formula to B5, you see -56
And these are absolutely correct results for the formula in normal mode,
because the first argument of IF is evaluated by intersection. But the article
tells about *array formula*, and explicitly tells that you need to press Shift
+ Ctrl + Enter keys. If you do that in Calc, you will get the same expected
result.
