Functions

The following functions are supported in the equations you create.

  • min(<expression1>, <expression2>): return the minimum of the two expressions.
  • max(<expression1>, <expression2>): return the maximum of the two expressions.
  • div(<expression1>, <expression2>): divide expression 1 by expression 2 and return the value rounded up at one-half.
  • floor(<expression1>, <expression2>): divide expression 1 by expression 2 and return the largest integer not greater than the result.
  • ceil(<expression1>, <expression2>): divide expression 1 by expression 2 and return the largest integer not less than the result.

The div, floor, and ceil functions will return an integer value. The expression div(1, 4) will divide 1 by 4 and return 0. 1/4 = .25 which is rounded to zero. As a result, 4 * div(1/4) = 0 and not 1

The following example should help to make this clear:

Expression Div Floor Ceil
1/4 (0.25) 0 0 1
2/4 (0.5) 1 0 1
3/4 (0.75) 1 0 1
4/4 (1) 1 1 1
