In the Liberty BASIC Helpfile, look in the category "Language Syntax and Usage" and find the sub-category called "Mathematics." The topics covered include:
Mathematics
Numeric Variables
Mathematical Operations
Trigonometry
Numbers and Strings
Date and Time Functions
Mathematics tells you how to manipulate numbers and numeric expressions using arithmetic, including addition, subtraction, division, multiplication, absolute value and scientific notation. It also includes links to these individual math functions:
SIN
COS
TAN
ASN
ACS
ATN
ABS
EXP
LOG
HEXDEC
DECHEX$
INT
MAX
MIN
MOD
RND
SQR
VAL
STR$
USING
Numeric Variables discusses numeric variable use, negative numbers as variables, and global variables.
Mathematical Operations gives an overview of math operations, including ABS(), SQR(), EXP(), LOG(), INT(), MAX(), MIN(), MOD, RND() and RANDOMIZE Trigonometry shows you which trig functions are supported in Liberty BASIC and how to use them. It also discusses the conversion between degrees and radians. Numbers and Strings explains the ways numbers can be converted to string and vice versa, as well as formatting numbers with the USING() function. Date and Time Functions lists the various functions that return the system time, the date, and it explains how to do math on dates.
