Built-In Functions, Overview The following tables summarize the built-in functions by purpose. Built-in functions are generally processing functions> or description functions>.
A processing function performs general processing and returns a return value according to its purpose.
A description function determines a property of an argument and usually returns this property as a numeric value. These include the logical functions, which either evaluate a logical expression as Boolean functions or return a truth value as a predicate function.
