Important behavior description

This advanced calculation action works with types of data. This means that it makes a distinction between Integers and Doubles (whole numbers and decimal numbers) for example. This means that 9 / 5 will result in 1 and 9.0 / 5 will result in 1.8. Be sure to keep this in mind when using this action.

Available Calculation methods

The list below shows all calculation operators and functions available:

• Plus operator - The usual + operator is used. For example 6 + 9
• Subtraction operator - The usual - operator is used. For example 9 - 6
• Multiplication operator - The usual * operator is used. For example 9 * 6
• Division operator - The usual / operator is used. For example 9 / 3
• Modulus operator - The % operator is used. An alternative is the mod operator. For example 5 mod 2 gives 1 and is equivalent to 5 % 2
• Random - Use tp.random() to generate a random number.
• Power - Use tp.pow(10,2) to calculate 10 raised to the power of 2 which is 100
• Absolute - Use tp.abs(-15) to get the absolute value, in this example 15.
• Square Root - Use tp.sqrt(16) to get the square root of a number, in this example 4.
• Exp - Use tp.exp(4). e raised to the power of a number. e is the base of the natural system of logarithms (approximately 2.718282).
• Log - Use tp.log(5) to get the natural logarithm of 5 in this example.
• Log10 - Use tp.log10(5) to get the base 10 logarithm of a 5 in this example.
• Sine Function - Use tp.sin(5) to get the sine of 5 in this example.
• Cosine Function - Use tp.cos(5) to get the cosine of 5 in this example.
• Tangent Function - Use tp.tan(5) to get the tangent of 5 in this example.
• Inverse Sine Function - Use tp.asin(5) to get the inverse sine of 5 in this example.
• Inverse Cosine Function - Use tp.acos(5) to get the inverse cosine of 5 in this example.
• Inverse Tangent Function - Use tp.atan(5) to get the inverse tangent of 5 in this example.
• Hyperbolic Sine Function - Use tp.sinh(5) to get the hyperbolic sine of 5 in this example.
• Hyperbolic Cosine Function - Use tp.cosh(5) to get the hyperbolic cosine of 5 in this example.
• Hyperbolic Tangent Function - Use tp.tanh(5) to get the hyperbolic tangent of 5 in this example.
