## DESCRIPTION

The math package provides utility math functions.

## COMMANDS

::math::cov value value ?value ...?
  Return the coefficient of variation expressed as percent of two or more numeric values.
::math::integrate list of xy value pairs
  Return the area under a &quot;curve&quot; defined by a set of x,y pairs and the error bound as a list.
::math::fibonacci n
  Return the n'th Fibonacci number.
::math::max value ?value ...?
  Return the maximum of one or more numeric values.
::math::mean value ?value ...?
  Return the mean, or &quot;average&quot; of one or more numeric values.
::math::min value ?value ...?
  Return the minimum of one or more numeric values.
::math::prod value ?value ...?
  Return the product of one or more numeric values.
::math::random ?value1? ?value2?
  Return a random number. If no arguments are given, the number is a floating point value between 0 and 1. If one argument is given, the number is an integer value between 0 and value1. If two arguments are given, the number is an integer value between value1 and value2.
::math::sigma value value ?value ...?
  Return the population standard deviation of two or more numeric values.
::math::stats value value ?value ...?
  Return the mean, standard deviation, and coefficient of variation as percent as a list.
::math::sum value ?value ...?
  Return the sum of one or more numeric values.
