Math#

Mathematical functions perform calculations on numeric inputs and return numeric results, including trigonometry, logarithms, powers and rounding.

Function

Description

ABS

A mathematical function that returns the absolute (positive) value of the specified numeric expression. (ABS changes negative values to positive values. ABS has no effect on zero or positive values.)

ACOS

A mathematical function that returns the angle, in radians, whose cosine is the specified float expression; also called arc cosine.

ASIN

Returns the angle, in radians, whose sine is the specified float expression. This is also called arcsine.

ATAN

Returns the angle in radians whose tangent is a specified float expression. This is also called arctangent.

ATN2

Returns the angle, in radians, between the positive x-axis and the ray from the origin to the point (y, x), where x and y are the values of the two specified float expressions.

CEILING

Returns the smallest integer greater than, or equal to, the specified numeric expression.

COS

Is a mathematical function that returns the trigonometric cosine of the specified angle, in radians, in the specified expression.

COT

A mathematical function that returns the trigonometric cotangent of the specified angle, in radians, in the specified float expression.

DEGREES

Returns the corresponding angle in degrees for an angle specified in radians.

EXP

Returns the exponential value of the specified float expression.

FLOOR

Returns the largest integer less than or equal to the specified numeric expression.

LOG

Returns the natural logarithm of the specified float expression.

LOG10

Returns the base-10 logarithm of the specified float expression.

PI

Returns the constant value of PI.

POWER

Returns the value of the specified expression to the specified power.

RADIANS

Returns radians when a numeric expression, in degrees, is entered.

RAND

Returns a pseudo-random float value from 0 through 1, exclusive.

ROUND

Returns a numeric value, rounded to the specified length or precision.

SIGN

Returns the positive (+1), zero (0), or negative (-1) sign of the specified expression.

SIN

Returns the trigonometric sine of the specified angle, in radians, and in an approximate numeric, float, expression.

SQRT

Returns the square root of the specified float value.

SQUARE

Returns the square of the specified float value.

TAN

Returns the tangent of the input expression.
