Numeric functions perform mathematical operations on numerical data types or return numeric information.
Sybase IQ does not have the same constants or data type promotions as SQL Anywhere, with which it shares a common user interface. If you issue a SELECT statement without a FROM clause, the statement is passed through to SQL Anywhere. For the most consistent results, include the table name in the FROM clause whether you need it or not.
This table lists numeric functions and their parameters.
