nmul

 

 

Overview

The nmul function computes the product of its arguments. The arguments must be Number and the product returned is a Number. The operands are not checked and are not coerced.

Usage

The nmul built-in function is a simple but very fast numeric division function that assumes that all of its arguments are type Number. Use the nmul function for highly optimized numeric division. For a slower, but more general multiplication that performs type conversion, use the multiplication operator, *.

 

Syntax

Expression:

(nmul num1 num2, ... )


Arguments Name Type Description
Argument:num1Number The multiplicand. Must be a Number.
Argument:num2Number An arbitrary number of Number multiplier operands.

Returns:

The product of all the Number arguments expressed as an Number.
