I tried multiple variations and double / rounding conversions (examples above), but no luck. The error does change to my string value: NaN in the error log though.
Could you try storing the values that you're using in the formula as a double prior to the final calculation? I don't really know how it works behind the scenes but wondering if, due to the datatype of the source variables(s), it tries to implicitly store the value as a decimal prior to assigning it to the output variable/cell amount.
So,
dim x  as double = someDecimal
dim y as double = someDecimal
dim z as double = x^yJust clutching at straws
- CAIGuySeanF3 years agoContributorIt seems to be failing at the exponent part of this approach (Dim z). What is odd, it looks like negative value is causing an issue. Testing a Dim with an abs() renders. I guess I could do "IF" logic to adjust, but that's odd to me that I couldn't leverage a negative value on an exponent double? See examples below: Dim Double Result: No longer and error message, but noData being returned. Making the base value ABS Result Renders (obviously not the math I want, but the calc runs) 
- CAIGuySeanF3 years agoContributorThis seems to be working.. although, I'm still not exactly sure why I need to call it this way.
