In related new, Google currently experimenting some new features in spreadsheets: One of the features lets you record macros for common tasks. Another feature, code-named "Sketchy", allows you to insert different drawings that resembles Microsoft Office's Clip Art. Google Spreadsheets' code also references an option titled "Solver", which could be a tool for solving optimization problems, and an option to protect sheets and cell ranges, reports Google System.
