Returns (description)
Abs(x)
The absolute value of x: the (positive) distance between x and zero.
Ceil(x)
The ceiling of x: the smallest integer not less than x
Cmp(x, y)
-1 if x<y, 0 if x==y, or 1 if x>y
Exp()
The exponential of x:ex
Fabs(x)
The absolute value of x.
Floor(x)
The floor of x: the largest integer not greater than x
Log(x)
The natural logarithm of x, for x>0
Log10(x)
The base-10 logarithm of x, for x>0
Max(x1,x2,…)
The largest of its arguments: the value closest to positive infinity
Min(x1,x2,…)
The smallest of its arguments: the value closest to negative infinity
Modf(x)
The fractional and integer parts of x in a two-item tuple. Both parts have the same sign as x. the integer part is returned as a float.
Pow(x,y)
The value of x**y
Round(x [,n])
