Built-In Functions
Built-In Functions - Overview
The following tables show the built-in functions by purpose. Built-in functions are generally
processing functions or
description functions .
A processing function performs general processing and returns a return code according to its purpose.
A description function determines a property of an argument and usually returns this property as a numerical value.
Other functions are known as logical functions, which either evaluate a logical expression (Boolean functions) or return a truth value (predicate functions).
