<h2>10.8: Mathematics</h2>
Gri lets you do some simple mathematical manipulations on your
column and grid data.
<p>
<h3>10.8.1: Column data</h3>
The column operators are `<font color="#82140F"><code>=</code></font>', `<font color="#82140F"><code>+=</code></font>', `<font color="#82140F"><code>-=</code></font>', `<font color="#82140F"><code>*=</code></font>',
`<font color="#82140F"><code>/=</code></font>', `<font color="#82140F"><code>^=</code></font>' (exponentiation) and `<font color="#82140F"><code>_=</code></font>' (logarithm). There
must be spaces before and after the operators, but no space between the
2 letters of the operators. The operations may be applied not only to
`<font color="#82140F"><code>x</code></font>' and `<font color="#82140F"><code>y</code></font>' as shown, but also to `<font color="#82140F"><code>z</code></font>' (used to hold data
to be contoured or written as symbols), and `<font color="#82140F"><code>u</code></font>' and `<font color="#82140F"><code>v</code></font>' (used
to store vector fields).
<p>
The axis scales are <b>not</b> changed by mathematical operations on the
columns, regardless of whether the scales were set manually or by Gri
command (see <a href="AxisScaling.html#AxisScaling">Axis Scaling</a>).
<p>
Elements of columns are available by the `<font color="#82140F"><code>@</code></font>' reverse polish
operator (see <a href="ReversePolishMath.html#rpnMathematics">rpn Mathematics</a>).
<p>
Examples:
<ul>
<li>
To multiply all the x data by 10, use `<font color="#82140F"><code>x *= 10</code></font>'; to add 5 to each
y-value, use `<font color="#82140F"><code>y += 5</code></font>'.
<li>
To set all the y data to 10, do `<font color="#82140F"><code>y = 10</code></font>'. (This will only work if
you've already read column data.)
</ul>
<p>
See also see <a href="TertiaryOperators.html#TertiaryOperators">Tertiary Operators</a> for a method of assigning or altering column data
using the RPN operator.
<p>
<h3>10.8.2: Grid data</h3>
Various commands let you alter grid data as used in contouring
(see <a href="ContourPlots.html#ContourPlots">Contour Plots</a>). Possible commands are as follows.
<p>
<TABLE SUMMARY="Example" BORDER="0" BGCOLOR="#efefef" WIDTH="100%">
<TR>
<TD>
<PRE>
<font color="#82140F">
grid data = number
grid data += number
grid data -= number
grid data *= number
grid data /= number
grid data ^= number # take data to power 'number'
grid data _= number # take log base 'number'
grid x = number
grid x += number
#... others as in `grid data'
grid y = number
grid y += number
#... others as in `grid data'
</font></PRE>
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
<p>
<h4>10.8.2.1: Image data</h4>
Various commands let you alter image data (see <a href="Images.html#Images">Images</a>.).
Possible commands are as follows.
<p>
<TABLE SUMMARY="Example" BORDER="0" BGCOLOR="#efefef" WIDTH="100%">
<TR>
<TD>
<PRE>
<font color="#82140F">
image += number
image -= number
image *= number
image /= number
image ^= number # power
image _= number # logarithm
</font></PRE>
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
<p>
<h4>10.8.2.2: Image grayscale/colorscale</h4>
Various commands let you alter image data (see <a href="Images.html#Images">Images</a>).
Possible commands are as follows.
<p>
<TABLE SUMMARY="Example" BORDER="0" BGCOLOR="#efefef" WIDTH="100%">
<TR>
<TD>
<PRE>
<font color="#82140F">
image grayscale += number
image grayscale -= number
image grayscale *= number
image grayscale /= number
image grayscale ^= number # power
image grayscale _= number # logarithm
image colorscale += number
image colorscale -= number
image colorscale *= number
image colorscale /= number
image colorscale ^= number # power
image colorscale _= number # logarithm
</font></PRE>
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
<p>
<h4>10.8.2.3: Variables</h4>
Possible commands are:
<p>
<TABLE SUMMARY="Example" BORDER="0" BGCOLOR="#efefef" WIDTH="100%">
<TR>
<TD>
<PRE>
<font color="#82140F">
.variable. = number
.variable. += number
.variable. -= number
.variable. *= number
.variable. /= number
.variable. ^= number # power
.variable. _= number # logarithm
</font></PRE>
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
