14:57, 27 June 2006 contribs)| (→Error messages - Errors without error message from the parser functions, which can be made using or attempting to use them:)
09:05, 26 June 2006 contribs)| (→Error messages - restore errors which from a practical viewpoint are related)
03:34, 26 June 2006 contribs)| (→Error messages - INF stuff should probably be elsewhere, accuracy (?), it also uses X2 and therefore won't work on Wikipedia)
02:49, 26 June 2006 contribs)| (→Error messages - get readable examples, rm unrelated errors)
02:17, 24 June 2006 contribs)|m (→Comparisons - restored "branching" from where it came ("length of" now covers the nit "ifexpr in expr"))
02:14, 24 June 2006 contribs)| (→Branching depending on an expression - rm observation now integrated in "length of", move section back to from where it came)
02:06, 24 June 2006 contribs)|m (→Error messages - cellspacing 0)
02:01, 24 June 2006 contribs)|m (→Error messages - let two rows use ifexpr)
01:58, 24 June 2006 contribs)|m (→Error messages - list is AFAIK complete)
01:54, 24 June 2006 contribs)| (→Error messages - add % (operator in many languages including PHP))
01:40, 24 June 2006 contribs)|m (→Error messages - nbsp in wrong row)
01:34, 24 June 2006 contribs)|m (rm two empty lines)
01:29, 24 June 2006 contribs)| (→Error messages - arranged as table)
07:42, 22 June 2006 contribs)| (→Operators - Blank spaces are good for readability but not needed for working properly, and within numbers not allowed:)
20:01, 19 June 2006 contribs)| (→See also - rm evalp - not yet documented, very expensive (almost kills "week" templates), and can be a complete waste of time if used for intermediate results within expressions (not final output))
18:55, 19 June 2006 contribs)| (→See also - *{{tim|evalp}} - allows error handling)
18:48, 19 June 2006 contribs)|m (→Length of expressions)
18:46, 19 June 2006 contribs)| (→Length of expressions - If the number of possible results of a long expression is small, a switch allows arbitrary conversion, including the absolute value and providing a leading zero, etc., wit)
18:37, 19 June 2006 contribs)| (→See also - *Help:Modulo and round)
18:26, 19 June 2006 contribs)| (→Length of expressions - Also providing a leading zero for the result of an expression if it is less than 10 doubles its length:)
18:21, 19 June 2006 contribs)| (→Length of expressions)
18:19, 19 June 2006 contribs)| (→Length of expressions - (The first has the advantage that for substitution one less "subst:" or <nowiki>{{{subst|}}}</nowiki> is needed.))
18:13, 19 June 2006 contribs)|m (→Length of expressions)
17:22, 19 June 2006 contribs)|m (→Branching depending on an expression)
17:18, 19 June 2006 contribs)| (→Branching depending on an expression)
17:15, 19 June 2006 contribs)|m (→Branching depending on an expression - fix link to new chapter)
07:31, 5 June 2006 contribs)|m (→Comparisons - fix fragments)
07:23, 5 June 2006 contribs)| (→Comparisons - rm "ifeq demo", if that has a notable point I fauil to see it, and if it has a point it should be stated here)
07:20, 5 June 2006 contribs)| (→Comparisons - replace T switch)
06:44, 5 June 2006 contribs)| (→Numbers as output - trim)
11:42, 3 June 2006 contribs)|m (→Accuracy - section title should be INaccuracy)
11:30, 3 June 2006 contribs)|m (→Accuracy - okay, maybe only a cache issue on my side, pray)
11:29, 3 June 2006 contribs)| (→Accuracy - depends on something used before this section (F*CK))
11:24, 3 June 2006 contribs)| (→Accuracy - add macheps)
05:43, 3 June 2006 contribs)|m (→Numbers as output - rm csnos)
23:40, 2 June 2006 contribs)| (→Minus zero - If the result of rounding a negative number is zero, the result is "-0". To avoid that, note that for such an expression ''x'', 0 + ( ''x'' ) does not gives "0".)
09:17, 2 June 2006 contribs)| (→Numbers as output)
11:35, 31 May 2006 contribs)| (→Substitution - Help:Creating a page on the fly)
03:17, 26 May 2006 contribs)|m (→Operators - not 30+7 as on ParserFunctions)
23:30, 22 May 2006 contribs)| (→Branching depending on the value of a boolean expression - simpler (this is demo of #ifexpr, not of "not 0" and "not 3", etc.))
18:02, 22 May 2006 contribs)|m (→Branching depending on the value of a boolean expression)
17:59, 22 May 2006 contribs)|m (→Branching depending on the value of a boolean expression)
17:53, 22 May 2006 contribs)| (→Comparisons - table instead of "see edit box")
17:32, 22 May 2006 contribs)| (→Branching depending on the value of a boolean expression - +example)
17:09, 22 May 2006 contribs)| (fix pref in lead section to state of the art (but I never tested AND vs. OR))
22:17, 21 May 2006 contribs)| (→Numbers as output)
22:13, 21 May 2006 contribs)| (→Numbers as output - See {{tim|evalint}} for producing output of large integers in non-scientific notation.)
22:07, 21 May 2006 contribs)| (→Numbers as output)
22:00, 21 May 2006 contribs)| (→Operators - example showing precedence: not 4 mod 2)
16:03, 21 May 2006 contribs)| (→Operators - Of course I meant MOD, it's horrible)
15:49, 21 May 2006 contribs)| (→Operators - add strong warning to DIV, putting it mildly it's broken)
15:46, 21 May 2006 contribs)| (→Operators - add simple "div" example, also showing that the mod preference was wrong (fixed))
15:09, 21 May 2006 contribs)| (→Operators - improve "round" examples)
14:57, 21 May 2006 contribs)| (→Operators - Found compelling example for NOT, state that MOD is unrelated to math "molulo" by example, state that DIV is unrelated to MOD)
14:36, 21 May 2006 contribs)|m (→Operators - show that NOT has higher pecedence than subtraction (best I can do at the moment))
14:33, 21 May 2006 contribs)|m (→Operators - unary +/- really before * (the NOT example is not yet compelling))
08:11, 1 May 2006 contribs)| (→Commas - In <nowiki>{{NUMBEROFARTICLES|R}}</nowiki> and <nowiki>{{NUMBEROFFILES|R}}</nowiki>, "|R" ("raw") produce numbers without delimiters.)
08:00, 26 April 2006 contribs)| (→String comparisons - Note that string comparisons can also be used for numeric comparisons, provided that notations like 3 and 3.0 are not mixed.)
07:57, 26 April 2006 contribs)| (→String comparisons)
07:52, 26 April 2006 contribs)| (→String comparisons)
07:43, 26 April 2006 contribs)|m (→String comparisons)
07:24, 26 April 2006 contribs)| (The <tt>expr</tt> function evaluates numerical expressions, and also boolean expressions involving numbers and booleans (not strings). The)
08:41, 23 April 2006 contribs)| (If a number uses point delimiters every three digits (as in continental Europe) and the number is an integer below one million, removing the point can be done by multiplying by 1000.)
21:02, 20 September 2004 contribs)| (restore example with new template name)
19:30, 20 September 2004 contribs)| (Remove incorrect example to talk.)
15:17, 8 July 2004 contribs)| (Alternatively, the user has to follow the link to see the result. Using template:pd is convenient and there is no redundancy, hence no worry about consistency:)
14:28, 8 July 2004 contribs)| (Suppose that someone updates the population figure but bot the density, than the next person can see that the density is not based on the latest figure, follow the link, replace the first number by it)
