Using functions in formulas

When you insert a function into a formula, the abbreviation of that function appears in the formula text area. Parentheses after the abbreviation mean that you need to provide one or more values for calculating the function. A separator (shown as a comma in the Help Topics) appears between multiple values.

Depending on the function, these values can be numbers, constants, variables, formulas, or other functions. For details check out, Sage Estimating Help.
