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
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.
