Max

Returns the maximum of n arguments.

Alternatively, if you provide a single set/array, it returns the maximum of its values.

The arguments must be comparable using >.

Definition

max(val1, val2, [val3, val4 ...])

max(set/array value)

Argument	Type
val1	`any`
val2	`any`
...

Example

max(147,42,81.9) == 147
max("abc", "bac") == "bac"
max({5}, {}) == {5}

max({147,42,81.9}) == 147

Min

Returns the minimum of n arguments.

Alternatively, if you provide a single set/array, it returns the minimum of its values.

The arguments must be comparable using <.

Definition

min(val1, val2, [val3, val4 ...])

min(set/array value)

Argument	Type
val1	`any`
val2	`any`
...

Example

min(147,42,81.9) == 42
min("abc", "bac") == "abc"
min({5}, {}) == {}

min({147,42,81.9}) == 42

Avg

Returns the average of n numbers.

Alternatively, if you provide a single set/array of values, it returns the average of its values.

Definition

avg(val1, val2, [val3, val4 ...])

avg(set/array value)

Argument	Type
val1	`any`
val2	`any`
...

Example

avg(2, 1, 5) == 4
avg({2, 1, 5}) == 4

Round

Definition

round(x)

Argument	Type	Meaning
x	`number`
Return value	`number`	Integer closest to x

Example

All the following expressions result in true:

round(4.3) == 4

round(4.5) == 5

Floor

Definition

floor(x)

Argument	Type	Meaning
x	`number`
Return value	`number`	Largest integer preceding x

Example

All the following expressions result in true:

floor(4.3) == 4

floor(4.5) == 4

Ceil

Definition

ceil(x)

Argument	Type	Meaning
x	`number`
Return value	`number`	Smallest integer following x

Example

All the following expressions result in true:

ceil(4.3) == 5

ceil(4.5) == 5

Absolute Value

Definition

abs(x)

Argument	Type	Meaning
x	`number`
Return value	`number`	Non-negative value of x without regard to its sign

Example

All the following expressions result in true:

abs(-4.3) == 4.3

abs(4.3) == 4.3

Square Root

Definition

sqrt(x)

Argument	Type	Meaning
x	Non-negative `number`
Return value	`number`	Number 𝑎, such that 𝑎²=𝑥

Example

All the following expressions result in true:

sqrt(4) == 2

// Square root is defined only for non-negative numbers
sqrt(-16) == null

Power Function

Definition

pow(base, exponent)

Argument	Type	Meaning
base	`number`
exponent	`number`
Return value	`number`	Base raised to the power exponent (𝑏𝑎𝑠𝑒^{𝑒𝑥𝑝𝑜𝑛𝑒𝑛𝑡})

Example

All the following expressions result in true:

pow(10,3) == 1000

pow(5,-2) == 0.04

pow(-2,5) == -32

Logarithm

Definition

log(x [, base])

Argument	Type	Meaning
x	Non-negative `number`
base	Non-negative `number`	Optional. Default base is decadic.
Return value	`number`	Number 𝑦, such that 𝑏𝑎𝑠𝑒^𝑦=𝑥

Example

All the following expressions result in true:

log(1000) == 3

log(16,2) == 4

// Logarithm is defined only for non-negative numbers
log(-2) == null
