DateTime Functions

• dateTime(date,time): Converts the arguments to a datetime
• year-from-dateTime(datetime)    Returns an integer that represents the year
  • month-from-dateTime(datetime)
  • day-from-dateTime(datetime) 
  • hours-from-dateTime(datetime)
  • minutes-from-dateTime(datetime)
  • seconds-from-dateTime(datetime)    

DateTime functions enable you to manipulate dates

Duration Functions

• years-from-duration(datetimedur) Returns an integer that represents the years component
  • months-from-duration(datetimedur)    
  • days-from-duration(datetimedur)    
  • hours-from-duration(datetimedur)
  • minutes-from-duration(datetimedur)
  • seconds-from-duration(datetimedur)
    

Duration functions enable you to work with time as a duration

Date and Time Functions

• year-from-date(date) Returns an integer that represents the year
  • month-from-date(date)    
  • day-from-date(date)    
• hours-from-time(time) Returns an integer that represents the hours
  • minutes-from-time(time)    
  • seconds-from-time(time)    

Date and Time functions enable you to work with dates that are not datetimes

Timezone Functions

• timezone-from-dateTime(datetime)
  • timezone-from-date(date)
  • timezone-from-time(time)
• adjust-dateTime-to-timezone(datetime,timezone)
  • adjust-date-to-timezone(date,timezone)    
  • adjust-time-to-timezone(time,timezone)    

Timezone functions enable you to get timezones from dates, or change dates to timezones

Numerical Functions

• abs(num)   
  Returns the absolute value of the argument
• ceiling(num)    
  Returns the smallest integer that is greater than the number argument
• floor(num)    
  Returns the largest integer that is not greater than the number argument
• round(num)    
  Rounds the number argument to the nearest integer
• round-half-to-even(num)
  Rounds the number argument to the nearest even integer
  

Aggregate Functions

• count(item,item,...)  Returns the count of nodes
• avg(arg,arg,...)    Returns the average of the argument values
• max(arg,arg,...)    Returns the argument that is greater than the others
• min(arg,arg,...)    Returns the argument that is less than the others
• sum(arg,arg,...)    Returns the sum of the numeric value of each node in the specified node-set

Sequence Functions

• index-of((item,item,...),searchitem)  Returns the positions within the sequence of items that are equal to the searchitem argument
• remove((item,item,...),position) Returns a new sequence constructed from the value of the item arguments - with the item specified by the position argument removed
• empty(item,item,...)    Returns true if the value of the arguments IS an empty sequence, otherwise it returns false
• exists(item,item,...)    Returns true if the value of the arguments IS NOT an empty sequence, otherwise it returns false

More Sequence Functions

• distinct-values((item,item,...),collation)   Returns only distinct (different) values
• insert-before((item,item,...),pos,inserts)   Returns a new sequence with the value of the inserts argument inserted in the position specified by the pos argument
• reverse((item,item,...))    Returns the reversed order of the items specified
• subsequence((item,item,...),start,len)    Returns a sequence of items from the position specified continuing for length specified. The first item is located at position 1
• unordered((item,item,...))  Returns the items in an implementation dependent order

String Functions

• string(arg) Returns the string value of the argument
• codepoints-to-string((int,int,...)) Creates a string from a sequence of the Unicode code points
• string-to-codepoints(string) Returns the sequence of the Unicode code points from a string
• codepoint-equal(comp1,comp2) Returns true if the value of comp1 is Unicode equal to the value of comp2
• compare(comp1,comp2) Returns -1 if comp1 is less than comp2, 0 if comp1 is equal to comp2, or 1 if comp1 is greater than comp2 

Substring Functions

• substring(string,start,len) Returns the substring from the start position to the specified length. Index of the first character is 1. If length is omitted it returns the substring from the start position to the end
• string-length(string) Returns the length of the specified string. If there is no string argument it returns the length of the string value of the current node
• substring-before(string1,string2)    Returns the start of string1 before string2 occurs in it
• substring-after(string1,string2)    Returns the remainder of string1 after string2 occurs in it

Translation Functions

• normalize-space(string) Removes leading and trailing spaces from the specified string, and replaces all internal sequences of white space with one and returns the result. If there is no string argument it does the same on the current node
• upper-case(string) Converts the string argument to upper-case
• lower-case(string) Converts the string argument to lower-case
• translate(string1,string2,string3) Converts string1 by replacing the characters in string2 with the characters in string3

String Testing Functions

• contains(string1,string2)    Returns true if string1 contains string2, otherwise it returns false
• starts-with(string1,string2)    Returns true if string1 starts with string2, otherwise it returns false
• ends-with(string1,string2)    Returns true if string1 ends with string2, otherwise it returns false

String Testing Functions

• concat(string,string,...)    Returns the concatenation of the strings
• string-join((string,string,...),sep)    Returns a string created by concatenating the string arguments and using the sep argument as the separator
• matches(string,pattern)    Returns true if the string argument matches the pattern, otherwise, it returns false
• replace(string,pattern,replace)    Returns a string that is created by replacing the given pattern with the replace argument
• tokenize(string,pattern)    Returns sequence from a string broken up by the pattern
