Deprecated Functions
Functions listed here remain available for backward compatibility but should not be used in new scripts.
Most were superseded in NXSL 5.0 by namespaced functions (Math::, Base64::) or by methods and attributes on the corresponding classes.
Each function name links to its full description, including parameters and examples.
