What is math function?

  • In mathematics, a function is a relation between a set of inputs and a set of permissible outputs with the property that each input is related to exactly one output.
  • An example is the function that relates each real number x to its square x2.
  • For general information about apache pig math functions.
  • Pig function names are case sensitive and UPPER CASE.
  • Pig may process results differently than as stated in the Java API Specification:
  • If the result value is null or empty, Pig returns null.
  • If the result value is not a number (NaN), Pig returns null.
  • If Pig is unable to process the expression, Pig returns an exception.
