Math¶
Math expressions are evaluated using the {! expr}
helper. They
have the following rules:
- Variables are either non-numeric values (eg.
abc
) or keys surrounded by brackets (eg.[x]
or[0]
) - Operations (eg.
+
-
etc), found below, follow common order-of-operations - Parenthesis can be used to group evaluations
- The result will use the minimum number of decimals to represent the value
- The formula can't reference other expression helpers
Examples¶
Warning
A common error is to reference matches using the expression syntax of {0}
, which won't
compile. Assure you are using the formula syntax of [x]
or [0]
If x=4
, then the following will evaluate:
{! 2+2} => 4
{! 2 * x} => 8
{! [x] * 4} => 16
{! abs(-4)} => 4
{! (2+2)*3} => 12
{! 2(1+1) } => 4
Operations¶
Binary¶
Type | Operators |
---|---|
Basic | + - * / ^ |
Bit | << >> & | |
Comparison | = <= >= < > |
Combiners | && || |
Unary¶
For single-character unary expressions, they can be applied directly
prior to the value, eg -x
or !x
. For more complex expressions,
they need to be followed by a group, eg. cos(x)
or abs(x+2)
Type | Operator |
---|---|
Basic | - abs |
Trig | sqrt sin asin cos acos tan atan |
Rounding | floor ceil round |
Log | exp exp2 log log10 log2 |
Comparison | ! (binary not) |
Formats¶
Supports the following number formats:
Format | Prefix | Example |
---|---|---|
Base 10 | - | 123.456 |
Binary | 0b |
0b1101 |
Hex | 0x |
