The math XQuery Module defines functions to perform mathematical operations, such as pi, asin and acos. Most functions are specified in the Functions and Operators Specification of the upcoming XQuery 3.0 Recommendation, and some additional ones have been added in this module.

Conventions[edit]

All functions in this module are assigned to the http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions/math namespace, which is statically bound to the math prefix.

W3 Functions[edit]

math:pi[edit]

Signature
math:pi() as xs:double
Summary Returns the xs:double value of the mathematical constant π whose lexical representation is 3.141592653589793.
Examples
  • 2*math:pi() returns 6.283185307179586e0.
  • 60 * (math:pi() div 180) converts an angle of 60 degrees to radians.

math:sqrt[edit]

Signature
math:sqrt(
  $arg  as xs:double?
) as xs:double?

If $arg is the empty sequence, the empty sequence is returned.
Otherwise the result is the xs:double value of the mathematical square root of $arg.

math:sin[edit]

Signature
math:sin(
  $arg  as xs:double?
) as xs:double?
Summary Returns the sine of the $arg, expressed in radians.
If $arg is the empty sequence, the empty sequence is returned.

) as xs:double?
Summary Returns the tangent of $arg, expressed in radians.
If $arg is the empty sequence, the empty sequence is returned.
Otherwise the result is the tangent of $arg, treated as an angle in radians.

math:asin[edit]

Signature
math:asin(
  $arg  as xs:double?
) as xs:double?
Summary Returns the arc sine of $arg.
If $arg is the empty sequence, the empty sequence is returned.
Otherwise the result is the arc sine of $arg, returned as an angle in radians in the range -π/2 to +π/2.

math:acos[edit]

Signature
math:acos(
  $arg  as xs:double?
) as xs:double?
Summary Returns the arc cosine of $arg.
If $arg is the empty sequence, the empty sequence is returned.
Otherwise the result is the arc cosine of $arg, returned as an angle in radians in the range 0 to +π.

math:atan[edit]

Signature
math:atan(
  $arg  as xs:double?
) as xs:double?
Summary Returns the arc tangent of $arg.
If $arg is the empty sequence, the empty sequence is returned.
Otherwise the result is the arc tangent of $arg, returned as an angle in radians in the range -π/2 to +π/2.

math:atan2[edit]

Signature
math:atan2(
  $arg1  as xs:double?,
  $arg2  as xs:double
) as xs:double?
Summary Returns the arc tangent of $arg1 divided by $arg2, the result being in the range -π/2 to +π/2 radians.
If $arg1 is the empty sequence, the empty sequence is returned.
Otherwise the result is the arc tangent of $arg1 divided by $arg2, returned as an angle in radians in the range -π to +π.

math:pow[edit]

Signature
math:pow(
  $arg1  as xs:double?,
  $arg2  as xs:double
) as xs:double?
Summary Returns $arg1 raised to the power of $arg2.
If $arg1 is the empty sequence, the empty sequence is returned.
Otherwise the result is the $arg1 raised to the power of $arg2.
Examples
  • math:pow(2, 3) returns 8.

math:exp[edit]

Signature
math:exp(
  $arg  as xs:double?
) as xs:double?
Summary Returns e raised to the power of $arg.
If $arg is the empty sequence, the empty sequence is returned.
Otherwise the result is the value of e raised to the power of $arg.
Examples
  • math:exp(1) returns e.

math:log[edit]

Signature
math:log(
  $arg  as xs:double?
) as xs:double?
Summary Returns the natural logarithm of $arg.
If $arg is the empty sequence, the empty sequence is returned.
Otherwise the result is the natural logarithm (base e) of $arg.
Examples
  • math:log(math:e()) returns 1.

math:log10[edit]

Signature
math:log10(
  $arg  as xs:double?
) as xs:double?
Summary Returns the base 10 logarithm of $arg.
If $arg is the empty sequence, the empty sequence is returned.
