☜ | Intrinsic Function1995 Version of ANSI (Equivalent to Current ISO Version) of Standard | ☞ |
Intrinsic functions are denoted by the prefix $ followed by one of a designated list of names, followed by a parenthesized argument list. Intrinsic function names differing only in the use of corresponding upper and lower case letters are equivalent. The following function names are defined:
functionname | ::= | │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ |
A[SCII] C[HAR] D[ATA] E[XTRACT] F[IND] FN[UMBER] G[ET] J[USTIFY] L[ENGTH] NA[ME] O[RDER] P[IECE] QL[ENGTH] QS[UBSCRIPT] Q[UERY] R[ANDOM] RE[VERSE] S[ELECT] ST[ACK] T[EXT] TR[ANSLATE] V[IEW] Z[unspecified] |
│ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ |
Unused function names beginning with an initial letter other than Z are reserved for future enhancement of the standard.
The formal definition of the syntax of function is a choice from among all of the individual function syntax definitions in this subclause.
function | ::= | │ │ │ │ │ │ |
syntax of $ASCII function syntax of $Char function ... syntax of $View function syntax of $Z[unspecified] function |
│ │ │ │ │ │ |
Any implementation of the language must be able to recognize both the abbreviation and the full spelling of each function name.
