The multiply function can be used for the multiplication of 2 numbers
Syntax
number multiply(number $left, number $right)Multiplies $right and $left.
Parameters
$left: The first number.
$right: The second number.
Example
Two key-value pairs, each containing a number value, can be multiplied with the multiply function. This is demonstrated in the example below. It is worth noting that while numbers formatted as strings (see “z” in the data below) are also supported by this function, number values are preferred. Using string values could lead to errors, in this case, thus it should be considered converting them into numbers using the to_number function.
{
"x": 2.5,
"y": 4
"z": "4" //While this is a string value, it would give the same result as "y". Ideally, string values shouldn't be using in numerical functions.
}{
mult: multiply(x, y)
}{
"mult": 10
}Notes
Decimal separator
The decimal separator is a dot and not a comma as in some regions of the world. i.e. 5.8 rather than 5,8.
