Functions - Arithmetic

Exponential function

Syntax

y = exp(number)

Calculates e ^

Number

. Another way of writing y = e

(number)

, where e is the

exponential (e = 2.71828...).

Parameter

Number

Exponent

The parameter can either be entered directly as a number or as a Variable
of the type

Number

. If the parameter does not correspond to the selected

type then it will be automatically converted to it (see Type conversion

"TextToNumber"). If this is not possible then "

invalid

" will be returned as the

result of this operation.

Examples

Exp(1.5) = 4.48169

Exp('CV.MeanTemp')

= potential of the exponent (Common variable) based

on e

Natural logarithm

Syntax

y = ln(number)

Returns the logarithm of the entered number based on e. Another way of
writing y = log

e

(Number), where e is the exponential (e = 2.71828...).

Parameter

Number

>0

The parameter can either be entered directly as a number or as a Variable
of the type

Number

. If the parameter does not correspond to the selected

type then it will be automatically converted to it (see Type conversion
"TextToNumber"). If this is not possible then "

invalid

" will be returned as the

result of this operation.

Examples

Ln(3) = 1.09861

Ln('CV.MeanTemp')

= natural logarithm of the value of the Common variable

based on e

Common logarithm

Syntax

y = log(number)

Gives the logarithm of the entered number to the base 10. Another way of

writing y = log

10

(number).

Parameter

Number

> 0

The parameter can either be entered directly as a number or as a Variable
of the type

Number

. If the parameter does not correspond to the selected
