Examples and notes

These functions can usually be replaced by operators:

add(1, 2)
1 + 2
subtract(prop("Budget"), prop("Expense"))
prop("Budget") - prop("Expense")

Use operators for simple formulas. Use functions for nested formulas or when you want a consistent function style.

To use these formulas directly in task reminders, project progress, note heatmaps, and reports, continue with FLO.W Notion Template.
