The FORMULA Gate is an easy way to write complex mathematical formulas on one or multiple event values. Use the ports’ (a, b, c, d) on the left hand side as variables in your formula. Keep in mind that if a port is used in your formula, and no events arrive at that port, the FORMULA Gate will not perform any calculation since it will be waiting for that particular variable to fill up.
List of things you can use in the FORMULA Gate:
