Mathematic Utilities

%EXP
%SQROOT

The mathematic utilities are:

%EXP: Raises one number to the power of another number.

%SQROOT: Calculates the square root of a number.

The mathematic utilities can be invoked as extrinsic functions.

These mathematic routines may be performed by VMS run-time library routines. If you often need to use the mathematic utilities as extrinsic functions, consider calling the VMS run-time library routines, using the GT.M $ZCALL function. For information on $ZCALL(), refer "Functions".

The "%" sign has been removed from the topic headings below, intentionally.
