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¶
| Symbol | Description |
|---|---|
| + | Sum up two operands. |
| - | Subtract two operands. |
| * | Multiply two operands. |
| / | Divide two operands. |
| ^ | Raise to a power. |
Supported Functions¶
| Symbol | Description |
|---|---|
| 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¶
| Symbol | Description |
|---|---|
| > | 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¶
| Symbol | Description |
|---|---|
| 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. |
