Function:
truncate(number[, <N>])Data type: number
Example:
truncate(23.45)
truncate(23.45, 0)
truncate(23.45, 1)

20sqrt(number)
Returns the square root (full-precision decimal) of the input.
Function:
sqrt(number)Data type: number
Example:
sqrt(64)Result:
8least(number(, number)*)
Returns whichever number has the smallest value.
Function:
least(number(, number)*)Data type: number
