Function name

Description

ABS(numeric_exp)

Returns the absolute value of numeric_exp

ACOS(float_exp)

Returns the arccosine of float_exp as an angle, expressed in radians.

ASIN(float_exp)

Returns the arcsine of float_exp as an angle, expressed in radians.

ATAN(float_exp)

Returns the arctangent of float_exp as an angle, expressed in radians.

ATAN2(float_exp1, float_exp2)

Returns the arctangent of the x and y coordinates, specified by float_exp1 and float_exp2.

CEILING(numeric_exp)

Returns the smallest integer greater than or equal to numeric_exp.

COS(float_exp)

Returns the cosine of float_exp, where float_exp is an angle expressed in radians.

COT(float_exp)

Returns the cotangent of float_exp, where float_exp is an angle expressed in radians.

DEGREES(numeric_exp)

Returns the number of degrees converted from numeric_exp radians.

EXP(float_exp)

Returns the exponential value of float_exp.

FLOOR(numeric_exp)

Returns the largest integer less than or equal to numeric_exp.

LOG(float_exp)

Returns the natural logarithm of float_exp.

LOG10(float_exp)

Returns the number of radians converted from numeric_exp degrees.

RAND([integer_exp])

Returns a random floating point value using integer_exp as the optional seed value.

ROUND(numeric_exp, integer_exp)

Returns numeric_exp rounded to integer_exp places right of the decimal point. If integer_exp is negative, numeric_exp is rounded to |integer_exp| places to the left of the decimal point.

SIGN(numeric_exp)

Returns an indicator of the sign of numeric_exp. If numeric_exp is less than zero, –1 is returned. If numeric_exp equals zero, 0 is returned. If numeric_exp is greater than zero, 1 is returned.
