Map and Table Calculation

/ operator

The division operator divides two values, i.e. a / b.

Syntax

a / b

Input

a is a value
Domain type: any Value domain
b is a value
Domain type: any Value domain

Output

/ returns: a real value
Domain: system domain Value

Notes:

Tip:

When the definition symbol = is used, a dependent output map or dependent output column is created; when the assignment symbol := is used, the dependency link is immediately broken after the output map/column has been calculated.

Usable in

MapCalc, TabCalc, Simple calculators

Examples

Pocket line calculator examples:

? 10/2

returns 5

? 2^3/4

returns 2.00

MapCalc example:

OutMap = InMapA / InMapB
