== Canvas function reference
Behind the scenes, Canvas is driven by a powerful expression language,
with dozens of functions and other capabilities, including table transforms,
type casting, and sub-expressions.
The Canvas expression language also supports <<canvas-tinymath-functions>>, which
perform complex math calculations.
A *** denotes a required argument.
A † denotes an argument can be passed multiple times.

| plot
| render
----
`as` casts any primitive value (`string`, `number`, `date`, `null`) into a `datatable` with a single row and a single column with the given name (or defaults to `"value"` if no name is provided). This is useful when piping a primitive value into a function that only takes `datatable` as an input.
In the example, `ply` expects each `fn` subexpression to return a `datatable` in order to merge the results of each `fn` back into a `datatable`, but using a `math` aggregation in the subexpressions returns a single `math` value, which is then cast into a `datatable` using `as`.
