Meaning
Function identifier used in tFunc (➜3.7.1) and tFuncVar (➜3.7.2) tokens
English name of the function
Minimum number of parameters this function requires
Maximum number of parameters this function allows. If equal to “Min par”, a tFunc token
is used for this function, otherwise a tFuncVar token.
Default token class of the return value (➜3.2.2).
R = reference class;
V = value class;
A = array class.
Token classes expected by the respective parameters of the function (➜3.2.3). The ellipse
“…” repeats the last specified token class for all following parameters.
If marked, the function result is volatile (needs to be recalculated always). Existance of
such a function causes the “Recalculate always” flag to be set in the ARRAY (➜5.4),
FORMULA (➜5.50), DATATABLE (➜5.24), and DATATABLE2 (➜5.25) records.
