HYPOT INDEX

HYPOT _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ operator

syntax:

hypot(<expression>,<expression>)

If rounded is on, and the two arguments evaluate to numbers, this operator returns the square root of the sums of the squares of the arguments in a manner that avoids intermediate overflow. In other cases, an expression in the original operator is returned.

examples:


hypot(3,4); 

  HYPOT(3,4) 


on rounded; 

ws; 

  5.0 


hypot(a,b); 

  HYPOT(A,B)
