The Cg function table:

Functions

Function Description
abs( x ) Absolute value of x .

ceil( x ) Smallest integer not less than x .

cos( x ) Cos of x.
cosh( x ) Hyperbolic cos of x .
cross( A , B ) Cross product of vectors A and B (A and B must be three-component).
ddx( a ) Partial derivative of a with respect to screen-space x coordinate
ddy( a ) Partial derivative of a with respect to screen-space y coordinate
debug(float4 x) If compiler DEBUG option is enabled, causes shader to halt with x copied to the COLOR output - otherwise it does nothing.
degrees( x ) convert radians to degrees.
determinant( x ) Determinant of matrix x.
distance( p1 , p2 ) Pythagorean distance between p1 and p2.

exp2( x ) Exponential function 2x.
faceforward( N, I, Ng ) N if dot( Ng , I ) < 0 otherwise (-N).
floor( x ) Largest integer not greater than x.
fmod( x , y ) Remainder of x/y (with the same sign as x). If y==0, result is undefined.
frac( x ) Fractional part of x.
frexp( x , out exp ) Splits x into normalized fraction in the interval [, 1), which is returned, and a power of 2, which is stored in exp . If x==0, both parts of the result are 0.
isfinite( x ) Returns true if x is finite.
isinf( x ) Returns true if x is infinite.
isnan( x ) Returns true if x is NaN.
ldexp( x , n ) x * 2n.
length( v ) Pythagorean length of vector.
lerp( a , b , f ) Linear interpolation: (1 - f)* a + b * f. f can be a vector of same length as a & b.
lit( NdotL , NdotH , m ) Computes lighting coefficients (m is the shininess). Returns: float4: .x=ambient (always 1), .y=diffuse (0 if N.L < 0), .z=specular (0 if N.L<0 or N.H<0); .w==1.0.
log( x ) Natural logarithm (x>0).
log2( x ) Log Base 2 (x>0).
log10( x ) Log Base 10 (x>0).
max( a , b ) Maximum of a and b .
min( a , b ) Minimum of a and b .
modf( x , out ip ) Splits x into int and frac parts (each with the same sign as x). Stores the int part in ip and returns the fractional part.
mul( M , N ) Matrix product of matrix M and matrix N: If M has size AxB, and N has size BxC, returns an AxC.
mul( M , v ) Product of matrix M and column vector v: If M has size AxB, and v is Bx1, returns an Ax1.
mul( v , M ) Product of row vector v and matrix M: If v is a 1xA and M is AxB, returns a 1xB.
noise( x ) Noise function. The returned value is between 0 and 1, and is always the same for a given input value.
normalize( v ) Normalize v.
pow( x , y ) xy
radians( x ) Converts degrees to radians.
reflect( I , N ) Computes reflection of I in a plane with surface normal N. (three-component vectors only).
refract( I , N , eta ) Computes refraction of I in a plane with surface normal N and refractive index eta. Returns (0,0,0) for total internal reflection. (three-component vectors only).
round( x ) Closest integer to x.
rsqrt( x ) Reciprocal square root of x (x>0).
saturate( x ) Clamps x to [0, 1].
sign( x ) Sign of x (returns -1, 0 or +1)
sin( x ) Sin of x.
sincos(float x , out s , out c ) s is set to sin(x), and c to cos(x).
sinh( x ) Hyperbolic sine of x.
smoothstep( min , max , x ) For values of x between min and max , returns a smoothly varying value that ranges from 0 at x==min to 1 at x==max. x is clamped to the range [min,max] and then returns 2*((x-min)/(max-min))3+3*((x-min)/(max-min))2
step( a , x ) 0 if x<a, 1 if x>=a

NOTES:

  • s indicates a one-, two-, or three-component texture coordinate.
  • z indicates a depth comparison value for shadow map lookups.
  • q indicates a perspective value, and is used to divide the texture coordinate ( s ) before the texture lookup is performed.

When you use the texture functions that allow specifying a depth comparison value, the associated texture unit must be configured for depth-compare texturing. Otherwise, no depth comparison will actually be performed.
