At this point this is a project research

Extending IronCalc is adding new features or abilities or functions to IronCalc. We want IronCalc to be extremely hackable and adaptable to other people's necesities. The most notable example would be adding a new spreadsheet function. Other examples might be, connection to a database (sqlite?).

Embedding means calling IronCalc from other sources. Because we already have an API that's easily done from languages like Python. The prime example here in my mind is an scripting language like Lua that would do a similar job as VBA
