ABS

Return the abolute value of an number(Ceilling Value)

Signature

                
ABS(Value : Double)

Demo

                
VAR Result: String;
VAR absVal: Double;

//---Absolute Value
absVal := -7;
absVal := ABS(absVal);

Result := FloatToStr(absVal);
Exit;

It will returns the absolute value of -7 that is 7

Ceil

returns the value by excess of a given Double value

Signature

                
Ceil(Value : Double)

Demo

                
VAR Result: String;
VAR absVal: Double;

//---Absolute Value
absVal := 7.23;
absVal := Ceil(absVal);

Result := FloatToStr(absVal);
Exit;

returns 8

Pred

Return a decremented by 1 Integer value of the paramter value

Signature

                
Pred(Value : Integer)

Demo

                
VAR Result : Integer;
VAR i      : Integer;
i := PRED(20);

ShowMessage(IntToStr(i));
//expected val = 19
Exit;

Random

Return a random number between 0 and ARange

Signature

                
Random(ARange : Integer)

Demo

                
VAR Result : String;
VAR i      : Integer;

//---expected val is between 0 and 100
i := Random(100);

ShowMessage(IntToStr(i));
Exit;

ROUND

Return Rounded value of AValue

Signature

                
ROUND(AValue : Double)

Demo

                
VAR Result : String;
VAR i      : Integer;

//---expected value = 4
i := ROUND(4.5);

ShowMessage(IntToStr(i));
Exit;

StrToFloat

Convert a String Value to a Float Value

Signature

                
StrToFloat(AString : String);

Demo

                
VAR Result : String;
VAR i      : Double;

//---expected value = 4
i := StrToFloat('4.5');

Exit;

StrToInt

Convert a String Value to an Integer Value

Signature

                
StrToInt(AString : String);

Demo

                
VAR Result : String;
VAR i      : Integer;

//---expected value = 4
i := strToInt('12');
i := i * 3 ;

ShowMessage(IntToStr(i));
Exit;
