Formulas can reference the value of another field in two ways. Like in
any other spreadsheet, you may reference fields with a letter/number
combination like @code{B3}, meaning the 2nd field in the 3rd row.
@c Such references are always fixed to that field, they don't change
@c when you copy and paste a formula to a different field. So
@c Org's @code{B3} behaves like @code{$B$3} in other spreadsheets.
@noindent
Org also uses another, more general operator that looks like this:
@vindex org-table-use-standard-references
Org prefers@footnote{Org will understand references typed by the user as
@samp{B4}, but it will not use this syntax when offering a formula for
editing. You can customize this behavior using the variable
@code{org-table-use-standard-references}.} to use another, more general
operator that looks like this:
@example
@@@var{row}$@var{column}
@end example
