The math module defines XQuery Functions to perform mathematical operations, such as pi
, asin
and acos
. All functions are preceded by the math:
prefix, which is linked to the http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions/math
namespace. Some of the functions have also been specified in the Functions and Operators Specification of the upcoming XQuery 3.0 Recommendation.
Contents
