Number Text Number 1.2 <> "1.2" --> 01.2 <>
"Metrohm" --> 1 Before the relational operation, the Num-
ber is converted to Text, afterwards the
texts are compared according to ASCII
value (see Chapter 2.3.4.10, page 65).
Text Number Number "Metrohm" <> 1.2 --> 1 The same rules apply here as for the previ-
ous operation.
Number Time Number 2.0 <> Time(1999;10;07) -->
1 Before the comparison, the operand is con-
verted from Date/Time to a Number.
Time Number Number Time(1999;10;07) <> 2.5 -->
1 The same rules apply here as for the previ-
ous operation.
Text Time Number "Metrohm" <>
Time(1999;10;07) --> 1 Before the operation, the operand is con-
verted from Date/Time to Text (in this
example: "1999-10-07 00:00:00 UTC
+2"), afterwards the texts are compared
according to ASCII value (see Chapter
2.3.4.10, page 65).
Time Text Number Time(1999;10;7) <>
"Metrohm" --> 1 The same rules apply here as for the previ-
ous operation.

Dialog window: Formula editor ▶ Operators/Functions
Syntax
y = Exp(number)
Calculates e ^ number. Other notation for y = e (number) , where e is the Euler
number (e = 2.71828…).
Parameters
Number
Exponent
The parameter can be indicated either directly as a number or as a variable
of the Number type. If the parameter does not correspond to the
expected type, it will automatically be converted to it. If this is not possi-
ble, the result of this operation is returned as invalid.
Examples
Exp(1.5) = 4.48169
Exp('CV.AverageTemp') = Power of the exponent (common variable
CV.AverageTemp) for base e
