operation | input |
addition | + |
subtraction | - |
multiplication, scalar product | * or space |
division | / |
potentiation | ^ or 2, 3 |
factorial | ! |
Gamma Funktion | gamma( ) |
parentheses | ( ) |
x-coordinate | x( ) |
y-coordinate | y( ) |
absolute value | abs( ) |
sign | sgn( ) |
square root | sqrt( ) |
exponential function | exp( ) |
logarithm (natural) | log( ) |
cosine | cos( ) |
sine | sin( ) |
tangent | tan( ) |
arc cosine | acos( ) |
arc sine | asin( ) |
arc tangent | atan( ) |
hyperbolic cosine | cosh( ) |
hyperbolic sine | sinh( ) |
hyperbolic tangent | tanh( ) |
antihyperbolic cosine | acosh( ) |
antihyperbolic sine | asinh( ) |
antihyperbolic tangent | atanh( ) |
greatest integer less than or equal | floor( ) |
smallest integer greater than or equal | ceil( ) |
Runden | round( ) |
For example, the midpoint M of two points A and B might be entered as M=(A+B)/2. The length of a vector v might be calculated using l=sqrt(v*v).
We see that you can do calculations with points and vectors as well in GeoGebra.
