Function Descriptions

The function descriptions are arranged by category, and alphabetically within their category. You can use the function index to look up the description of a function by name.

Every function can throw a ~numargs error if passed the wrong number of arguments, and most can throw a ~type error if passed arguments of the wrong type. If a function can throw any other type of error, it will be documented in the function's description.
