| Input | Notes |
|---|---|
Numbers string / Required Value List numbers |
e^x
Returns e^x, where x is the input number, and e is Euler's constant (2.718…, the base of the natural logarithm). | key: exp
| Input | Notes |
|---|---|
Exponent string / Required exponent | A number to provide to the math function |
Evaluate Expression
Evaluate a mathematical expression (for example, "2 * 3 + 7") | key: evaluate
| Input | Notes | Example |
|---|---|---|
Expression string / Required expression | 3 * 5 + 2 |
The evaluate action follows JavaScript evaluation rules. Your expression can use any JavaScript arithmetic operator and follows order of operations rules (think PEMDAS from middle school!).
For example, to express "five plus three times four to the third power", you could enter 5 + 3 * 4 ** 3.
Note that the exponent would evaluate first, giving 5 + 3 * 64.
Then, the multiplication would evaluate giving 5 + 192.
Finally, the addition would evaluate giving 197.
You can leverage input templates to concatenate several config variables, step results and numbers into a single mathematical expression:
Additionally, you can use JavaScript bitwise operators to do things like 5 << 2 and get a result of 20.
