Mathematical Operators

The Recital/4GL supports the use of the following Mathematical Operators:

Addition

4

N,C,D

Operator	Operation	Precedence	Data Types
()	Parentheses	1	N,C,D
**	Exponentiation	2	N
*	Multiplication	3	N
/	Division	3	N
%	Modulus/Remainder	3	N

When dealing with Character data types, the operators have the following definitions:

Concatenate the right hand string to the end of the left hand string

Operator	Operation

Example

? 2*3^2
        18
? 2*25%7
      1.00
