Returns the constant e (2.718218285) raised to the power x.

FACT(x)

Returns the factorial of x.

FIX(x)

LEN(a$)

Returns length of string A$. Note that if a$ is actually a variable of type x, the returned length will always be the physical mapped size of the variable. Otherwise, for strings (type S), the returned length will be determined by the first null byte or the physical mapped length, whichever is smaller.

LOG(x)

LOG10(x)

Returns the decimal logarithm of x.

NUMEXPR

SGN(x)

Returns the sign of x: -1 if x < 0, 0 if x = 0, 1 if x > 0.

SQR(x)

Returns the square root of x.
