Hey all — What appears missing that I need at the moment is; Add_month, Add_year
Heh, you got me. I haven't written add or difference functions for years or months yet because those entities represent variable quantities of time and the proper approach wasn't quite clear. For the moment you can hack around it with something like: (= date(year(mydate)+1, month(mydate), day(mydate)) =) Results might not be what you expect if the month-day isn't applicable to the resulting month. Anyway, I'll add these functions next iteration. `ValueError: TypeError: value.asString is not a function value: > 20180101001411129` > That's an internal error and a rookie mistake on my part. I'll patch it tonight or tomorrow. Just to make sure it is intentional - concatenation: 1 & 2 = 1.002.00 > (...i.e 1.00 and 2.00) > OK, so this is a weird one. When numbers are turned into strings (including by concatenation) they use the conversion rules defined for the widget. Currently you can choose to set no rule (in which case fractional numbers tend to print very long), you can set fixed point (N digits after zero, as I've done on the wiki's main page), or you can set a fixed number of significant digits. There is not, at the moment, any logic to nudge a number like .2500000001 to .25 without forcing a format onto it (because the Javascript standard library doesn't appear to provide as much). Anyway, long story short, I could probably stand to implement smarter stringification and/or a function that allows the string format to be specified on an individual basis.

No decimals then of course. But then maybe that > would be strings rather than numbers?
