Re: Math

abs = absolute value
sqrt = square root
sin = sine
cos = cosine
tan = tangent
asin = arcsine (inverse function of sine)
acos = arccosine (inverse function of cosine)
atan = arctangent (inverse function of tangent)
ln = natural log (base e)
log = log base 10
e ^ = e raised to the power of
10 ^ = 10 raised to the power of
