+
+ The lang function returns true or false depending on whether the language of the context node as specified by xml:lang attributes is the same as or is a sublanguage of the language specified by the argument string. The language of the context node is determined by the value of the xml:lang attribute on the context node, or, if the context node has no xml:lang attribute, by the value of the xml:lang attribute on the nearest ancestor of the context node that has an xml:lang attribute. If there is no such attribute, then lang returns false. If there is such an attribute, then lang returns true if the attribute value is equal to the argument ignoring case, or if there is some suffix starting with - such that the attribute value is equal to the argument ignoring that suffix of the attribute value and ignoring case.

- The boolean function converts its argument to a boolean as follows:

-
-
- [1.0] -
-
- a number is true if and only if it is neither positive or negative zero nor NaN -
- a node-set is true if and only if it is non-empty -
- a string is true if and only if its length is non-zero -
- an object of a type other than the four basic types is converted to a boolean in a way that is dependent on that type -
fn:not()

+ $arg is first reduced to an effective boolean value by applying the fn:boolean()
+ function. Returns true if the effective boolean value is false, and false if the

-
-
+
- The lang function returns true or false depending on whether the language of the context node as specified by xml:lang attributes is the same as or is a sublanguage of the language specified by the argument string. The language of the context node is determined by the value of the xml:lang attribute on the context node, or, if the context node has no xml:lang attribute, by the value of the xml:lang attribute on the nearest ancestor of the context node that has an xml:lang attribute. If there is no such attribute, then lang returns false. If there is such an attribute, then lang returns true if the attribute value is equal to the argument ignoring case, or if there is some suffix starting with - such that the attribute value is equal to the argument ignoring that suffix of the attribute value and ignoring case.

+ fn:encode-for-uri()
+
+ This function encodes reserved characters in an xs:string that is intended to be used in
+ the path segment of a URI. It is invertible but not idempotent. This function applies
+ the URI escaping rules defined in section 2 of [RFC 3986] to the xs:string supplied as
+ $uri-part. The effect of the function is to escape reserved characters. Each such
+ character in the string is replaced with its percent-encoded form as described in [RFC
+ 3986].
+ + If $uri-part is the empty sequence, returns the zero-length string.
+ + All characters are escaped except those identified as "unreserved" by [RFC 3986], that + is the upper- and lower-case letters A-Z, the digits 0-9, HYPHEN-MINUS ("-"), LOW LINE + ("_"), FULL STOP ".", and TILDE "~".
+ + Note that this function escapes URI delimiters and therefore cannot be used + indiscriminately to encode "invalid" characters in a path segment.
+ + Since [RFC 3986] recommends that, for consistency, URI producers and normalizers should + use uppercase hexadecimal digits for all percent-encodings, this function must always + generate hexadecimal values using the upper-case letters A-F.

+ sequence, which is formed by encoding the character as a sequence of octets in UTF-8,

+ fn:resolve-uri()
+
+ This function enables a relative URI reference to be resolved against an absolute URI.
+
+ The first form of this function resolves $relative against the value of the base-uri
+ property from the static context. If the base-uri property is not initialized in the
+ static context an error is raised [err:FONS0005].
+ + If $relative is a relative URI reference, it is resolved against $base, or against the + base-uri property from the static context, using an algorithm such as those described in + [RFC 2396] or [RFC 3986], and the resulting absolute URI reference is returned.
+ If $relative is an absolute URI reference, it is returned unchanged.
+ + If $relative is the empty sequence, the empty sequence is returned.
+ + If $relative is not a valid URI according to the rules of the xs:anyURI data type, or if + it is not a suitable relative reference to use as input to the chosen resolution + algorithm, then an error is raised [err:FORG0002].
+ + If $base is not a valid URI according to the rules of the xs:anyURI data type, if it is + not a suitable URI to use as input to the chosen resolution algorithm (for example, if + it is a relative URI reference, if it is a non-hierarchic URI, or if it contains a + fragment identifier), then an error is raised [err:FORG0002].

+ fn:resolve-QName()
+
+ Returns an xs:QName value (that is, an expanded-QName) by taking an xs:string that has
+ the lexical form of an xs:QName (a string in the form "prefix:local-name" or
+ "local-name") and resolving it using the in-scope namespaces for a given element.
+ + If $qname does not have the correct lexical form for xs:QName an error is raised + [err:FOCA0002].
+ + If $qname is the empty sequence, returns the empty sequence.
+ + More specifically, the function searches the namespace bindings of $element for a + binding whose name matches the prefix of $qname, or the zero-length string if it has no + prefix, and constructs an expanded-QName whose local name is taken from the supplied + $qname, and whose namespace URI is taken from the string value of the namespace + binding.
+ + If the $qname has a prefix and if there is no namespace binding for $element that + matches this prefix, then an error is raised [err:FONS0004].
+ + If the $qname has no prefix, and there is no namespace binding for $element + corresponding to the default (unnamed) namespace, then the resulting expanded-QName has + no namespace part.
+ + The prefix (or absence of a prefix) in the supplied $qname argument is retained in the + returned expanded-QName, as discussed in Section 2.1 TerminologyDM.

If the argument is NaN, then NaN is returned. If the argument is positive infinity, then positive infinity is returned. If the argument is negative infinity, then negative infinity is returned. If the argument is positive zero, then positive zero is returned. If the argument is negative zero, then negative zero is returned. If the argument is less than zero, but greater than or equal to -0.5, then negative zero is returned.
