/ - Normal division

\ - Integer division (truncates the answer)

^ - Exponentiation operator

* - Multiply

+ - Plus

- - Minus

= - Equal

> - Greater Than

< - Less Than

<> - Not Equal

>= - Greater than or equal

<= - Less than or equal

AND - Defines a boolean value that is the AND of two values

result = expression1 AND expression2

OR - Defines a boolean value that is the OR of two values

result = expression1 OR expression2

XOR - Defines a boolean value that is the exclusive OR of two values

result = expression1 XOR expression2

NOT - Defines an opposite boolean value

A = NOT B

EQV - Performs a logical equivalence on two expressions (result is true if both expressions are true)

result = expression1 EQV expression2

IMP - Performs a logical implication on two expressions

result = expression1 IMP expression2

IS - Determines if 2 variables reference the same object

result = object1 IS object2

LIKE - Determines if one string matches a pattern

result = string LIKE pattern

MOD - Returns the integer remainder of a division

i = 27 MOD 5

Math

VB also provides built-in functions which can act on variables. Most are self-explanatory. In my experience, the VAL, RND, and ROUND functions are among the most valuable, so be sure to pay close attention to them!

Round - Rounds a number to a selectable number of decimal places

result = round ( tempvariable,2 )

Val - Returns the numerical content of a string

result = Val ("123.4")

Int - Returns an integer by truncating (different than Fix)

i = int ( tempvariable )

Fix - Returns an integer by truncating (different than Int)

i = fix ( tempvariable )

Hex - Returns the hexadecimal value of any number

temp$ = hex ( tempvariable )

Oct - Returns the octal value of any number

temp$ = oct ( tempvariable )

Tan - Returns the tangent of an angle

tempvariable1 = tan ( tempvariable2 )

Rnd - Returns a random number between 0 and 1

tempvariable1 = rnd

Randomize - Initializes the Rnd function so it gives different answers each time
