Math Operations

Performs arithmetic, statistical, trigonometric, or expression-based calculations and returns the numeric result.

Purpose

Use Math Operations any time a workflow needs to compute a value from numeric inputs — for example, calculating a percentage, incrementing a counter inside a loop, rounding a measurement to a required precision, or evaluating a complex multi-step formula in a single expression. Two modes are available: Traditional for discrete named operations, and Expression for free-form mathematical expressions.

Inputs

Field	Type	Required	Description
Operation Mode	Dropdown	No	Selects the input style. Traditional exposes discrete operation and value fields. Expression exposes a free-text formula field. Defaults to Traditional.
Expression	Multi-line Text	No	A mathematical expression to evaluate. Supports standard operators and functions such as sqrt, abs, round, min, max, pow, sin, cos, tan, log, log10. Visible when Operation Mode is Expression.
Operation	Dropdown	No	The specific calculation to perform. Visible when Operation Mode is Traditional.
Value1	Text	No	First numeric operand. For Random, this is the minimum. For Clamp, this is the value to constrain. Visible when Operation Mode is Traditional.
Value2	Text	No	Second numeric operand. Required for Add, Subtract, Multiply, Divide, Modulo, Power, Min, Max, PercentageOf, AsPercentageOf, and Random. Not used for single-operand operations. Visible when Operation Mode is Traditional.
Precision	Text	No	Number of decimal places to round to. Visible when Operation is Round.
MinValue	Text	No	Lower boundary for the Clamp operation. Visible when Operation is Clamp.
MaxValue	Text	No	Upper boundary for the Clamp operation. Visible when Operation is Clamp.

Visibility Rules

Expression is visible when Operation Mode is Expression. Operation, Value1, and Value2 are visible when Operation Mode is Traditional. Precision is visible when Operation is Round. MinValue and MaxValue are visible when Operation is Clamp.

Operations

Operation	Description
Add	Adds Value1 and Value2.
Subtract	Subtracts Value2 from Value1.
Multiply	Multiplies Value1 by Value2.
Divide	Divides Value1 by Value2. Value2 must not be zero.
Modulo	Returns the remainder of Value1 divided by Value2.
Power	Raises Value1 to the power of Value2.
SquareRoot	Returns the square root of Value1.
Round	Rounds Value1 to the number of decimal places specified in Precision.
Floor	Returns the largest integer less than or equal to Value1.
Ceiling	Returns the smallest integer greater than or equal to Value1.
Absolute	Returns the absolute (non-negative) value of Value1.
Min	Returns the smaller of Value1 and Value2.
Max	Returns the larger of Value1 and Value2.
Clamp	Constrains Value1 to the range defined by MinValue and MaxValue.
PercentageOf	Calculates Value1 percent of Value2.
AsPercentageOf	Expresses Value1 as a percentage of Value2. Value2 must not be zero.
Random	Generates a random decimal number between Value1 (minimum) and Value2 (maximum).
Sin	Returns the sine of Value1 (in radians).
Cos	Returns the cosine of Value1 (in radians).
Tan	Returns the tangent of Value1 (in radians).
Log	Returns the natural logarithm of Value1. Value1 must be positive.
Log10	Returns the base-10 logarithm of Value1. Value1 must be positive.
