PURPOSE
: Returns the integer part of the argument.
FORMAT
:
FIX
(argument)
Numeric expression
The parenthesis enclosing the argument can be omitted when the argument is a
numeric value or variable.
EXAMPLE
: FIX (-1.5)
PARAMETERS
: argument : numeric expression
SEE
: INT, FRAC
FRAC
PURPOSE
: Returns the fractional part of the argument.
FORMAT
:
FRAC
(argument)
Numeric expression
The parenthesis enclosing the argument can be omitted when the argument is a
numeric value or variable.
EXAMPLE
: FRAC (3.14)
PARAMETERS
: argument : numeric expression
EXPLANATION
:
1. Returns the fractional art of the argument.
2. The sign (±) of the value is the same as that for the argument.

: INT, FIX
HYPACS
PURPOSE
: Returns the value for which hyperbolic cosine (value) = argument.
FORMAT
:
HYPACS
(argument)
Numeric expression
The parenthesis enclosing the argument can be omitted when the argument is a
numeric value or variable.
EXAMPLE
: HYPACS (150)
PARAMETERS
: argument must be within the [1 , 5x10
99
[ range
EXPLANATION
:
1. The mathematical formula for reverse hyperbolic cosine is :
acosh(x) = ln ( x +
√
) where ln is the natural logarithm .
2. The returned value is in the [-230.2585092 , +230.2585092] range.
