Plot calculation functions

This topic provides you with a list of the mathematical functions that can be used when creating a new user-defined plot, and a description about the action that the function performs on the existing plot.

FunctionDescription
SinCalculates the sine of the expression (in radians).
CosCalculates the cosine of the expression (in radians).
TanCalculates the tangent of the expression (in radians).
LogCalculates the logarithm of the expression (base e).
Log10Calculates the logarithm of the expression (base 10).
ExpExponentiate the expression (base e).
AbsCalculates the absolute value of the expression.
SqrtCalculates the square root of the expression.
SignEvaluates to 0, 1 or -1 if the expression evaluates to 0, >0 or <0 respectively.
NintCalculates the nearest integer to the expression.
ConstantUses a constant value for the expression.

To convert from degrees to radians, multiply by pi/180 (about 0.01745) before applying Sin, Cos or Tan.
