Expressions
The following expressions can be constructed in certain
operand positions :
Writer positions
Declaration expressions
Certain constructor expressions
Certain table expressions
Reader positions
Logical expressions
Constructor expressions
Table expressions
Arithmetic expressions
String expressions
Bit expressions
An expression in a writer position
produces a result to which a value is assigned.
An expression in a reader position
produces a result that is used as an operand in the statement. Logical
expressions can contain
calculation expressions (arithmetic expressions, string expressions,
and bit expressions) as relational expressions. The three different
calculation expression types cannot currently be mixed in a single
calculation expression.
Note
Although the calculation expression types cannot be mixed directly, a
different type of expression can be used as an argument of a permitted
function in another expression. In the same way, logical expressions can
be used as arguments of Boolean functions
in calculation expressions.
