POT Function

──┬─ POTL ─┬─ [ ──<arithmetic expression>── ] ─────────────────────────┤
  ├─ POTC ─┤
  └─ POTH ─┘

The POT (Power of Ten) functions-POTL (low), POTC (center), and POTH (high), together provide the following value from three tables that are double-precision, read-only arrays:

10 ** <arithmetic expression>

Each of the POT functions is defined only for integer values of the arithmetic expressions that fall in the range 0 through 29604. The complete value of 10 ** <arithmetic expression> can be computed using the following arithmetic expression:

POTL[<arithmetic expression>.[5:6]]
     * POTC[<arithmetic expression>.[11:6]]
            * POTH[<arithmetic expression>.[14:3]]

Examples of the POT Function

RESULT := POTL[X]; % WHERE X < 64
DEFINE POT(T) = (POTL[T.[5:6]] * POTC[T.[11:6]] * POTH[T.[14:3]])#;
ONEDIVTENTOI := 1 / POT(I);
