RE: functions

[Ian Skinner]

Yes, the val() used in the function is there because CF is type less.  Thus your function could receive a string just has happily has an integer or a float as a parameter.  The val() function prevents the math from blowing up if it receives a string instead of a numeric value.  It would cause all non-numeric values to become 0.
