Functions

These are mainly of the form C = F (A), where A is the argument, or input to the function.
Abs
Abs (A) calculates the absolute value of an integer or a real number, so the result is always
positive o
Atn
Atn (A) calculates the angle of which A is the tangent. Because infinitely many angles can have
the same tangent, the output of Atn always lies in the range minus π / 2 to plus π / 2. The input
can be any positive or negative value in the range of the VB system.
CDbl
CDbl (A) calculates a double precision real variable, equal to A.
CInt
Cint (A) calculates the integer value nearest to A, which can be any acceptable VBS number.
Cint (-7
CLng
CL ng (A) calculates the nearest long integer to the value A. Long integers are signed 32-bit
val ues in the approximate range -21.5 M to + 21.5 M.
Cos
Cos (A) calculates the cosine of any integer or real number, giving an output that is never
greate
CSng
CSng (A) calculates a single precision real variable equal to A.
Exp
Exp (A) calculates the value of e
200
ERIES
31
r zero. A can be any number in the range of the VB system.
.4) = -7. Integers are signed 16-bit values in the range -32767 to + 32767.
