AviSynth Syntax - Numeric functions
Numeric functions provide common mathematical operations on numeric
variables.
- Max
| v2.58 | Max(float,
float [, ...])
- Returns the maximum value of a set of numbers.
If all the values are of type Int, the result is an Int. If any of the
values are of type Float, the result is a Float.
This may cause an unexpected result when an Int value greater than 16777216
is mixed with Float values.
- Examples:
Max (1, 2) = 2
Max (5, 3.0, 2) = 5.0
- Min
| v2.58 | Min(float,
float [, ...])
- Returns the minimum value of a set of numbers.
- Examples:
Max (1, 2) = 1
Max (5, 3.0, 2) = 2.0
- MulDiv
| v2.56 | MulDiv(int,
int, int)
- Multiplies two ints (m, n) and divides the product by a third (d) in a
single operation, with 64 bit intermediate result. The actual equation used
is (m * n + d / 2) / d .
- Examples:
MulDiv (1, 1, 2) = 1
MulDiv (2, 3, 2) = 3
- Converts from float to int (round down on any fractional amount).
- Examples:
Floor(1.2) = 1
Floor(1.6) = 1
Floor(-1.2) = -2
Floor(-1.6) = -2
- Converts from float to int (round up on any fractional amount).
- Examples:
Ceil(1.2) = 2.0
Ceil(1.6) = 2.0
Ceil(-1.2) = -1
Ceil(-1.6) = -1
- Converts from float to int (round off to nearest integer).
- Examples:
Round(1.2) = 1
Round(1.6) = 2
Round(-1.2) = -1
Round(-1.6) = -2
- Returns the sine of the argument (assumes it is radians).
- Examples:
Sin(Pi()/4) = 0.707
Sin(Pi()/2) = 1.0
- Returns the cosine of the argument (assumes it is radians).
- Examples:
Cos(Pi()/4) = 0.707
Cos(Pi()/2) = 0.0
- Returns the tangent of the argument (assumes it is radians).
- Examples:
Tan(Pi()/4) = 1.0
Tan(Pi()/2) = not defined
- 32 bit ieee floats do not have sufficient resolution to exactly represent
Π/2 so AviSynth returns a large positive number for the value slightly less
than Π/2 and a large negative value for the next possible value which is
slightly greater than Π/2.
- Asin
| v2.60 | Asin(float)
- Returns the inverse of the sine of the argument (output is radians).
- Examples:
Asin(0.707) = 0.7852471634 (~ Pi/4)
Asin(1.0) = 1.570796327 (~ Pi/2)
- Acos
| v2.60 | Acos(float)
- Returns the inverse of the cosine of the argument (output is in radians).
- Examples:
Acos(0.707) = 0.7852471634 (~ Pi/4)
Acos(0.0) = 1.570796327 (~ Pi/2)
- Atan
| v2.60 | Atan(float)
- Returns the inverse of the tangent of the argument (output is in radians).
- Examples:
Atan(0.707) = 0.6154085176
Atan(1.0) = 0.7853981634 (~ Pi/4)
- Atan2
| v2.60 | Atan2(float,

Atan2(1.0, 1.0) = 0.7852471634 (~ Pi/4)
Atan2(-1.0, -1.0) = -2.356194490 (~ -3Pi/4)

- Fmod
| v2.60 | Fmod(float,

- Examples:
Fmod(3.5, 0.5) = 0 (since 3.5 - 7*0.5 = 0)
Fmod(3.5, 1.0) = 0.5 (since 3.5 - 3*1.0 = 0.5)
- Returns the value of the "pi" constant (the ratio of a circle's
circumference to its diameter).
- Examples:
d = Pi() # d == 3.141593
- Returns the value of the "tau" constant (the ratio of a circle's
circumference to its radius). See Tau_(2Π) for more information.

- Abs
| v2.07 | Abs(float

integer for integer).
- Examples:
Abs(-3.8) = 3.8
Abs(-4) = 4
- Sign
| v2.07 | Sign(float)
- Returns the sign of the value passed as argument (1, 0 or -1).
- Examples:
Sign(-3.5) = -1
Sign(3.5) = 1
Sign(0) = 0
- Converts from single-precision, floating-point
value to int (round towards zero).
- Examples:

- Frac
| v2.07 | Frac(float)

Frac(3.7) = 0.7
Frac(-1.8) = -0.8
- Float
| v2.07 | Float(int)
- Converts int to single-precision, floating-point
value. Integer values that require more than 24-bits to be represented will
have their lower 8-bits truncated yielding unexpected values.
- Examples:
Float(4) = 4.0
Float(4) / 3 = 1.333 (while 4 / 3 = 1 , due to integer division)
- Rand
| v2.07 | Rand([int
max] [, bool scale] [, bool seed])
- Returns a random integer value. All parameters are optional.
- max sets the maximum value+1 (default 32768) and can be set
negative for negative results. It operates either in scaled or modulus
mode (default scale=true only if abs(max) > 32768, false
otherwise).
- Scaled mode (scale=true) scales the internal random number
generator value to the maximum value, while modulus mode (scale=false)
uses the remainder from an integer divide of the random generator value
by the maximum. I found modulus mode is best for smaller maximums.
- Using seed=true seeds the random number generator with the
current time. seed defaults to false and probably isn't
necessary, although it's there just in case.
- Typically, this function would be used with the Select function for random
clips.
- Examples:
Select(Rand(5), clip1, clip2, clip3, clip4, clip5)
- Spline
| v2.51 | Spline(float
X, x1, y1, x2, y2, .... [, bool cubic])
- Interpolates the Y value at point X using the control points x1/y1, ...
There have to be at least 2 x/y-pairs. The interpolation can be cubic (the
result is a spline) or linear (the result is a polygon). Default is cubic.
- Examples:
Spline(5, 0, 0, 10, 10, 20, 0, false) = 5
Spline(5, 0, 0, 10, 10, 20, 0, true) = 7
- ContinuedNumerator
| v2.60 |
ContinuedNumerator(float,
int limit)
- ContinuedNumerator
| v2.60 |
ContinuedNumerator(int, int,
int limit)
- ContinuedDenominator
| v2.60 |
ContinuedDenominator(float,
int limit)
- ContinuedDenominator
| v2.60 |
ContinuedDenominator(int,
int, int limit)
- The rational pair (ContinuedNumerator,ContinuedDenominator) returned has
the smallest possible denominator such that the absolute error is less than
1/limit. More information can be found on wikipedia.
- If limit is not specified in the Float case the rational pair
returned is to the limit of the single precision floating point value. Thus
(float)((double)Num/(double)Den) == V.
- In the Int pair case if limit is not specified then the normalised original
values will be returned, i.e. reduced by the GCD.
- Examples:
ContinuedNumerator(PI(), limit=5000]) = 355
ContinuedDenominator(PI(), limit=5000) = 113
ContinuedNumerator(PI(), limit=50]) = 22
ContinuedDenominator(PI(), limit=50) = 7
ContinuedNumerator(355, 113, limit=50]) = 22
ContinuedDenominator(355, 113, limit=50) = 7
- BitAnd
| v2.60 | BitAnd(int,
int)
- The functions: BitAnd, BitNot, BitOr, BitXor, etc, are bitwise operators.
This means that their arguments (being integers) are converted to binary
numbers, the operation is performed on their bits, and the resulting binary
number is converted back again.
- BitAnd returns the bitwise AND (sets bit to 1 if both bits are 1 and sets
bit to 0 otherwise).
- Examples:
BitAnd(5, 6) = 4 # since 5 = 101, 6 = 110, and 101&110 = 100
- BitNot
| v2.60 | BitNot(int)
- Returns the bit-inversion (sets bit to 1 if bit is 0 and vice-versa).
- Examples:
BitNOT(5) = -6 # since 5 = 101, and ~101 = 11111111111111111111111111111010
- Note: 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1010 = (2^32-1)-2^0-2^2 = 2^32-(1+2^0+2^2) = (signed) -(1+2^0+2^2) = -6.
- BitOr
| v2.60 | BitOr(int,
int)
- Returns the bitwise inclusive OR (sets bit to 1 if one of the bits (or
both) is 1 and sets bit to 0 otherwise).
- Examples:
BitOr(5, 6) = 7 # since 5 = 101, 6 = 110, and 101|110 = 111
BitOr(4, 2) = 6 # since 4 = 100, 2 = 010, and 100|010 = 110
- BitXor
| v2.60 | BitXor(int,
int)
- Returns the bitwise exclusive OR (sets bit to 1 if exactly one of the bits
is 1 and sets bit to 0 otherwise).
- Examples:
BitXor(5, 6) = 3 # since 5 = 101, 6 = 110, and 101^110 = 011
BitXor(4, 2) = 6 # since 4 = 100, 2 = 010, and 100^010 = 110

- Note: -42 = -(1+2^0+2^3+2^5) = (unsigned) 2^32-(1+2^0+2^3+2^5) = (2^32-1)-2^0-2^3-2^5 = 11111111111111111111111111010110.
