# Extra Functions and Operators
{{>toc}}
There are a number of extra functions and operators included in this version of `exp4j`, non of this are enabled by default, they are in the [`net.objecthunter.exp4j.extras`](https://redmine.riddler.com.ar/projects/exp4j/repository/revisions/master/show/src/main/java/net/objecthunter/exp4j/extras) package.
## Comparison Operators
Aside from the arithmetic operators several comparison operators are included: `<`, `<=`, `>`, `>=`, `!=` and `==`.
Please note that since `exp4j` itself has no concept of `boolean`, the results given by all of the comparison operators will be `1.0` if `true` and `0.0` if `false`. Let it be noted that due to rounding, equality operators use a radix in which they consider numbers to be "equal", that is:
Let `a` and `b` be two real numbers, `a == b` will evaluate to `true` if and only if the distance between `a` and `b` (`dist(a, b) := abs(a - b)`) is less or equal than [`1e-12` (`0.000000000001`)](https://redmine.riddler.com.ar/projects/exp4j/repository/revisions/master/entry/src/main/java/net/objecthunter/exp4j/extras/FunctionsMisc.java#L150) and `false` otherwise.
### Precedence
Operator precedence is altered when using the comparison operators, the new precedence is:
~~~
FIRST-> * / % - + > >= < <= ¬ & | == != <-LAST
----- --- --------- - - - -----
^^^ The dashes indicate groups with the same precedence
~~~
### Warning!
See [[Warnings#Concatenating-comparison-operators|Warning -> Concatenating Comparison Operators]]
## Boolean Functions
Even though we have boolean operators, there are also a number of boolean functions that can be used (some people prefer functions)
* `and(a, b)`: Logical and _equivalent to `a & b`_
* `or(a, b)`: Logical or _equivalent to `a | b`_
* `xor(a, b)`: Exclusive or
* `nand(a, b)`: _equivalent to `¬(a & b)`_
* `nor(a, b)`: _equivalent to `¬(a | b)`_
* `xnor(a, b)`: Negated exclusive or
* `not(a)`: _equivalent to `¬a`_
## Boolean Constants
* `true()`: true value `1.0` (true is actually any value different than zero, but this is the value returned by comparison operators, boolean operators and boolean functions.
* `false()`: false value `0.0`
## Extra Functions
* `if(e, v_true, v_false)`: Branches the formula, it will be evaluated as `v_true` if `e == true()` and `v_false` if `e == false()`
* `equals(a, b)`: Equivalent to `a == b`, so the same conditions apply.
* `isNan(a)`: Tells if a value is `Not A Number`
* `min(x, y)`: Returns the smallest (closest to negative infinity) of two numbers.
* `max(x, y)`: Returns the largest (closest to positive infinity) of two numbers.
* `lcm(x, y)`: Returns the Least Common Multiple of two numbers.
* `gcd(x, y)`: Returns the Greatest Common Divisor of two numbers.
* `round(x)`: Returns the closest integer of `x`.
* `deg2rad(x)`: Returns the value of `x` expressed in radians.
* `rad2deg(x)`: Returns the value of `x` expressed in degrees.
## Signal Functions
* `sinc(t)`: `sinc(x)`: [Cardinal sine of `t`](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinc_function) `x`](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinc_function) (not normalized), equivalent to `sin(t)/t`
* `triangle(t)`: Triangle wave
* `sawtooth(t)`: Sawtooth wave
* `heavyside(t)`: Heavyside Step function
* `rectangle(t, X, Y)`: Rectangular function `sin(x)/x`
## Extra constants
* `inf()`: Retrieves the value of `Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY`
## Expression based functions
* It's now possible to create expression based functions! See: [[Expression Based Functions]]
