User: 

You are given access to make searches on the Internet. The format for making a search is:
1. After the user sends a message, you will decide whether to make a search. If you choose to make a search, you will output a single message, starting with the word <web_search>, followed by ONLY your web search query. After your search query, you must output the token </web_search> to denote the end of the search query. Keep your search query concise.
2. The system will then append the web search results at the end of the user message, starting with the token <web_search_results>. Take note that the user CANNOT SEE the content after <web_search_results> - YOU should use these results appropriately to improve your response. Additionally, If the web search results are already present in the user's message, then you MUST NOT request another web search.

IMPORTANT! You should choose to search the web ONLY if ANY of the following circumstances are met:
1. User is asking about current events or something that requires real-time information (news, sports scores, 'latest' information, etc.)
2. User is asking about some term you are unfamiliar with (e.g. if it's a little-known term, if it's a person you don't know well, etc.)
3. User is asking about anything that involves numerical facts (e.g. distances between places, population count, sizes, date and time, etc.)
4. User explicitly asks you to search or provide links to references.
If the user's query does NOT require a web search, YOU MUST NEVER run one for no reason. However, you must not refuse to search the web if the user asks you to do so.
If you are highly unsure about whether to make a search (e.g. if the user's query is vague or if you think you are unfamiliar with the query to a certain extent), you may directly ask the user for clarification.

When using web search results, you are encouraged to cite references where appropriate, using inline links in standard markdown format.
You are also allowed to make use of web search results from previous messages, if they are STRONGLY RELEVANT to the current message.

When you are not running a web search, respond completely as per normal - there is NO NEED to mention that you're not searching. 
Remember that you MUST NOT make up any false information.
Assistant: Understood. I will strictly follow these instructions in this conversation.
User: test
Assistant: I'm here to help you! If you have any questions or need assistance, feel free to ask.
User: how to add 3 years to a date on the column to its right google sheets
Assistant: In Google Sheets, you can add 3 years to a date by using the `EDATE` function. Here's how you can do it:

1. Let's say your original date is in cell A1.
2. In the cell to the right (for example, B1), you would enter the following formula:

   ```
   =EDATE(A1, 36)
   ```

The `EDATE` function takes two arguments: the starting date and the number of months to add. Since you want to add 3 years, you multiply 3 by 12 (which equals 36 months).

After entering the formula, cell B1 will display the date that is 3 years later than the date in cell A1.
User: can i make it without specifiying numbers to make it work on all column
Assistant: Yes, you can create a formula that will automatically adjust to work for an entire column in Google Sheets without specifying numbers directly in the formula. To do this, you can use a combination of the `ARRAYFORMULA` and `EDATE` functions. Here’s how you can set it up:

1. Assume your original dates are in column A, starting from A1.
2. In cell B1 (the cell to the right), enter the following formula:

   ```
   =ARRAYFORMULA(IF(A:A<>"", EDATE(A:A, 36), ""))
   ```

This formula does the following:
- `ARRAYFORMULA` allows you to apply a formula to an entire range of cells.
- `IF(A:A<>"", ...)` checks if there is a date in column A; if so, it applies the `EDATE` function to add 3 years (36 months).
- The last parameter `""` ensures that if there is no date in column A, the corresponding cell in column B remains empty.

With this setup, the formula in column B will automatically calculate the date that is 3 years later for all non-empty cells in column A.
User: tells me this error #REF!
Assistant: The `#REF!` error in Google Sheets typically indicates that there's an invalid reference in your formula, which can happen when using `ARRAYFORMULA` with an entire column reference like `A:A`. 

To avoid this issue, you can specify a more limited range. Instead of using the entire column, use a defined range that you expect to contain data. For example, if your dates are in cells A1 to A100, you can modify your formula as follows:

1. In cell B1, use this formula:

   ```
   =ARRAYFORMULA(IF(A1:A100<>"", EDATE(A1:A100, 36), ""))
   ```

This should resolve the `#REF!` error and work correctly for the specified range. If your data extends beyond row 100, adjust the range accordingly (e.g., `A1:A1000`). 

Try this adjusted formula, and it should calculate the new date for every non-empty cell in the specified range without errors.
User: not working
Assistant: If you're still encountering issues, let's troubleshoot the formula step by step. Please ensure the following:

1. **Check Data Format**: Ensure that the cells in column A contain valid date formats. Sometimes, if a cell is not recognized as a date, the formula will not work as expected.

2. **Use the Correct Range**: Make sure to specify a range that actually includes data. For testing, let's reduce the range to a smaller set to see if it works. 

   Try this formula in cell B1:
   ```plaintext
   =ARRAYFORMULA(IF(A1:A10<>"", EDATE(A1:A10, 36), ""))
   ```

3. **Formula Entry**: Make sure you’re entering the formula in cell B1 without any leading or trailing spaces.

4. **Check for Errors in Column A**: If there are any errors in the referenced cells in column A (like `#VALUE!`, `#N/A`, etc.), it can cause the whole array formula to not function properly.

If the above adjustments still do not resolve the issue, could you provide any error messages or clarify what specifically is happening when you try the formula? This will help in diagnosing the problem effectively.
User: the output is not a date just a digits number
Assistant: If the output is showing as a number rather than a date, it usually indicates that Google Sheets is interpreting the result of your formula as a numerical value instead of a date format. This can happen if the cell format is not set to date. Here's how to fix it:

1. **Select Column B**: Click the header of Column B to select the entire column where your formula is applied.

2. **Change Format to Date**: 
    - Go to the menu bar at the top.
    - Click on **Format**.
    - Then select **Number**.
    - Finally, choose **Date** from the options provided.

After changing the format to date, the output in Column B should now display as dates rather than numeric values.

If you've done this and the output is still not showing as dates, please double-check the following:

- Ensure that the input dates in Column A are valid date entries.
- Verify that the formula in cell B1 is still set as follows:
   ```plaintext
   =ARRAYFORMULA(IF(A1:A10<>"", EDATE(A1:A10, 36), ""))
   ```

If the format is correctly set, the formula is correctly entered, and the data in Column A is valid, you should see the expected dates in Column B. Let me know if this resolves the issue!
User: how to define the max row of google sheets because it extends way too far
Assistant: In Google Sheets, there isn't a built-in feature to directly set a maximum row limit for how far your data can go, as the number of rows is typically fixed at 10 million cells (or a potential maximum of 18,278 rows if using 1-column sheets). However, you can manage the visibility and usability of your sheet in several ways:

1. **Hide Rows**: If you want to limit the visible rows, you can hide the rows you don't intend to use. To do this:
   - Select the rows you want to hide by clicking on the row numbers while holding down the Shift key.
   - Right-click on one of the selected row numbers and choose "Hide rows".

2. **Protect Ranges**: You can protect specific ranges to prevent accidental editing:
   - Select the range or rows you want to protect.
   - Right-click and select "Protect range".
   - Set permissions for yourself or other users.

3. **Use Filters**: You can apply filters to your data which can help you only view certain rows based on specific criteria, making it easier to navigate.
   - Select the row with your headers.
   - Click on "Data" in the menu.
   - Choose "Create a filter".

4. **Data Validation or Input Restrictions**: If you are concerned about how much data can be entered, you can implement data validation in the cells to restrict the type or range of data that can be input.

5. **Google Apps Script**: For more advanced users, you can write a script using Google Apps Script to enforce row limits or manage your data programmatically.

While these methods can help control visibility and limit unintended input, they won't alter the inherent capacity of Google Sheets itself. If you find that you're dealing with unnecessary rows or complexity, consider organizing your data into multiple sheets or using a database
User: is there a way to generate a random signature and sign a bunch of pdf file with a different one ?
Assistant: , you can generate random signatures and use them to sign multiple PDF files, but this typically involves a combination of tools and possibly some programming. Here are some methods you can consider:

### 1. **Using Online Signature Generators**
There are several online tools where you can generate random or custom signatures. After you have a collection of signature images, you can then use them on PDFs. However, signing multiple PDFs individually may still be a manual effort unless you automate the process.

### 2. **PDF Editing Software**
You can use PDF editing software like Adobe Acrobat, PDF Studio, or similar applications that allow you to import images as signatures. You can create a batch process if the software supports automation.

### 3. **Using Scripting (e.g., Python)**
If you're comfortable with programming, you can use Python libraries such as `PyPDF2` or `pdfplumber` combined with `Pillow` to manipulate images and sign PDF files programmatically. Here's a simple outline of how this might work:

- **Generate Random Signatures**: You can use a random signature generator or even create random patterns and save them as images.
- **Sign PDFs**: Use a library like `PyPDF2` or `reportlab` to programmatically add your signatures to each PDF. Here’s a very basic example using `PyPDF2`:

```python
import PyPDF2
from PIL import Image
import random

def generate_random_signature():
    # Implement logic to generate a random signature image
    # This is a placeholder
    return f'signature_{random.randint(1, 10)}.png'

def sign_pdf(input_pdf, output_pdf):
    signature_image = Image.open(generate_random_signature())
    # Implement logic to overlay the image onto the PDF

    # This is a simplified version. You would need to manage coordinates and other details.

# Sample process
for pdf_file in ["file1.pdf", "file2.pdf", "file3.pdf"]:  # List your PDFs
    sign_pdf(pdf_file, f'signed_{pdf_file}')
```

### 4. **Dedicated Software Solutions**
There are dedicated software solutions like DocuSign or HelloSign that offer bulk signing features. They often allow you to upload multiple documents and apply different signatures to each. 

### 5. **Batch Processing with Macros or Scripts in PDF Software**
Some PDF software support macros or scripting functionality that can automate the signing process. Check if your PDF tool provides such a feature.

### Implementation Considerations
- **Quality of Signature**: Ensure that the generated signatures look realistic if the document uses them for legal purposes.
- **Automation Tools**: Depending on your comfort level with programming or using third-party services, consider what best fits your needs.
- **Testing**: Always test on a few documents before processing a larger batch to ensure that your signatures appear correctly.

Using these methods, you should be able to generate random signatures and sign multiple PDF documents efficiently. Let me know if you
