CEILING() – Rounds a number upward to the smallest integer greater than or equal to it.

SQUARE() – Outputs the result of multiplying a number by itself.

SQRT() – Gives the square root of the given number.

POWER(x, y) – Calculates x raised to the exponent y.

RAND() – Generates a random decimal value between 0 and 1.
