Numeric Functions

Numeric functions perform calculations on numeric constants and fields.

For many functions, the output argument can be supplied either as a field name or as a format enclosed in single quotation marks. However, if a function is called from a Dialogue Manager command, this argument must always be supplied as a forma. For detailed information about calling a function and supplying arguments, see Accessing and Calling a Function.

Note: With CDN ON, numeric arguments must be delimited by a comma followed by a space.
