Syntax Elements
dynArray A DataBasic expression that evaluates to a dynamic array.
Return Value
A dynamic array with the same structure as dynArray, but with each numeric value replaced by its negated value. Positive values become negative, and vice versa. Zeros are unchanged.
Note
-
Null elements remain null.
-
Non-numeric elements are replaced by 0 and a run-time error is generated (see Strings in Arithmetic Expressions).
Example
ARY = 1.5:@AM:-2.5:@AM:3.5:@AM:"Fred":@VM:7:@SVM:-20:@AM NEWARY = NEGS(ARY)
Sets NEWARY to "-1.5AM2.5AM-3.5AM0VM-7SVM20AM" and generates run-time error B16.
