The multiplication operator multiplies 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 |
Note:
When one of the operands is undefined, or when both operands are undefined, the output will also be undefined.
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
