    Gets the unique name of a variable to display.
    Returns:
      the name

  - ### setName

    public void setName​(String name)

    Parameters:
      `name` - the new name

  - ### getFormula

    Returns:
      the formula

  - ### setFormula

    public void setFormula​(String formula)
    Sets the formula or expression used to compute the value of a field.
    Parameters:
      `formula` - the new formula

  - ### getNumberFormat

    public String getNumberFormat()
    Specifies the numbering sequence. The defined values are: - 1: Hindu-Arabic number sequence starts with 1. - a: number sequence of lowercase Modern Latin basic alphabet characters starts with "a". - A: number sequence of uppercase Modern Latin basic alphabet characters starts with "A". - i: number sequence of lowercase Roman numerals starts with "i". - I: number sequence of uppercase Roman numerals start with "I".
    Returns:
      the number format

  - ### isEnableLetterSynchronization

    public boolean isEnableLetterSynchronization()
    Specifies whether letter synchronization shall take place. If letters are used in alphabetical order for numbering, there are two ways to process overflows within a digit, as follows: -false: A new digit is inserted that always has the same value as the following digit. The numbering sequence (for lower case numberings) in that case is a, b, c, ..., z, aa, bb, cc, ..., zz, aaa, ..., and so on. -true: A new digit is inserted. Its start value is â€�aâ€� or â€�Aâ€�, and it is incremented every time an overflow occurs in the following digit. The numbering sequence (for lower case numberings) in that case is a,b,c, ..., z, aa, ab, ac, ...,az, ba, ..., and so on.
    Returns:
      true, if is enable letter synchronization

  - ### setEnableLetterSynchronization

    public void setEnableLetterSynchronization​(boolean enableLetterSynchronization)
    Specifies whether letter synchronization shall take place. If letters are used in alphabetical order for numbering, there are two ways to process overflows within a digit, as follows: -false: A new digit is inserted that always has the same value as the following digit. The numbering sequence (for lower case numberings) in that case is a, b, c, ..., z, aa, bb, cc, ..., zz, aaa, ..., and so on. -true: A new digit is inserted. Its start value is â€�aâ€� or â€�Aâ€�, and it is incremented every time an overflow occurs in the following digit.
