Numeric Functions

Numeric intrinsic functions are specific to working with numeric values, whether they are integers or numbers. They are generally used to perform some mathematical operation using the value or values passed. The following is the current list of numeric intrinsic functions:

  • .fix()

  • .ipower()

  • .ipowermod()

The details of the proper syntax and usage of each of these can be found in the "SIMPOL Language Reference" in the "Numeric Functions" section of the "Intrinsic Functions" chapter. Of the three, the .fix() function is the most useful for most people. The other two are primarily used in the implementation of RSA encryption.
