Mathematical Operations
OmniSolve allows you to solve mathematical problems using the Math calculator
or by directly entering expressions into the data entry fields.
Solving expressions within edit fields
You can solve simple mathematical expressions directly within OmniSolve's
data entry fields by simply entering the expression as you would write it
out on paper and hitting the = key. The expression will be evaluated
and the answer placed back into the field. The following functions are supported:
| * |
Multiply |
2*3= |
| - |
Subtract |
2-3= |
| / |
Division |
23/67= |
| + |
