WMLScript » Functions » Lang
The Lang Library contains fifteen functions. You can use these various functions to perform operations on integer and floating-point numbers, create random numbers, create absolute values, stop the current code execution, and determine support parameters.
The optional Float Library contains eight functions that perform related tasks on floating-point numbers.
The library and function names are case sensitive.
