When we are dealing with Calculated fields in SharePoint lists, it's good to remember that lists are basically Excel sheets. To whit, we can use almost all the same formulas in a calculated field as we do in Excel. I often go into Excel to work out my formula (since the interactive error messages are better) and then just copy the formula from Excel to my field definition in SharePoint.
If it works in Excel, it probably works in SharePoint! 😉
Happy coding.
