Operand1 Operand2 Result Example Remark
Operands of the same type:
Number Number Number 1.2 ^ 3 = 1.728 Complex results (which com-
prise +bi, i.e. a real and an
imaginary component) are dis-
played as an error.
Text Text Text "Metrohm" ^ "AG" = invalid This operation is not allowed.
Time Time Number Time(1900;01;05) ^ Time(1900;01;02)
= 196.371 (for UTC+1) Result: Number of days calcu-
lated from December 1899,
dependent on the system time
Operand of different type: The operand which does not correspond to the result type is converted to the relevant
result type before the operation.
