Archicad GDL Maths Functions

[GDL Enthusiast]

Hi, 

I can't seem to get some of the math functions to work e.g.

x1 = atan (1)

x2 = sqrt (16)

x3 = power (5,2)

The error is unnecessary token(s) after end of command. The syntax comes from here:

https://helpcenter.graphisoft.com/user-guide/128510/

Other functions seem to work fine, I have no idea why, e.g.

y1 = tan(0.785)

y2 = sin(0.5)

y3 = cos(0.5)

I suspect I am I missing something obvious... but I would welcome any help!

Many thanks, 

Matt

Hi Matt.

The link shown above provides the reference for Expressions applied to archicad properties and are not the syntaxing functions for GDL.

Here's the GDL reference for common GDL functions: Functions | GRAPHISOFT GDL Center
