    Overview

    Dynamic functions are a set of specialized methods for reading data and content from queries to greatly simplify the logic needed to build formulas for dynamic triggers, text, and infographics. These functions are extended methods that are implemented in the same fashion as the Common library. However, they are designed to act on a given query 's result set.

    The Dynamic library includes numerous methods for reading values and labels from the cells of a result set - or performing classical data 'scraping' operations on the result set.

    Dynamic calculations are usually done with specialized methods added to languages like Java, C# and VB.
