Supported Math Operations and Functions
The following operations and functions can be used when defining the math expressions used in variable measurements:
Math For Calculations
The binary operations and functions listed below perform simple math calculations on the variables included in the expression.
Supported Binary Operations
|
+ |
Sum up two operands. |
|
- |
Subtract two operands. |
|
* |
Multiply two operands. |
|
/ |
Divide two operands. |
|
^ |
Raise to a power. |
Supported Functions
|
sin(x) |
Returns the sine of x where x is in radians. |
|
cos(x) |
Returns the cosine of x where x is in radians. |
|
tan(x) |
Returns the tangent of x where x is in radians. |
|
abs(x) |
Returns the absolute value of x. |
|
round(x) |
Returns the whole number nearest x. |
Conditionals
The relational and logical operations listed below are used when the output of the expression is intended to be binary (TRUE or FALSE).
| ￭ | 1- indicates a TRUE result |
| ￭ | 0 - indicates a FALSE result |
Supported Relational Operations
|
> |
If x > y, result is 1. If not, result is 0. |
|
< |
If x < y, result is 1. If not, result is 0. |
|
= |
If x = y, result is 1. If not, result is 0. |
Supported logical Operations
|
AND |
If x = 1 (TRUE) and y = 1 (TRUE), result is 1. If not, result is 0. |
|
OR |
If x = 1 (TRUE) or y = 1 (TRUE), result is 1. If not, result is 0. |
|
& |
If x = 1 (TRUE) and y = 1 (TRUE), result is 1. If not, result is 0. |
|
| |
If x = 1 (TRUE) and y = 1 (TRUE), result is 1. If not, result is 0. |
