The Grid Calculator calculates a new grid based on existing grids and a mathematical formula. The grid variables in the formula begin with the letter 'g' followed by a position index, which corresponds to the order of the grids in the input grid list (i.e.: g1, g2, g3, ... correspond to the first, second, third, ... grid in list). Grids from other systems than the default one can be addressed likewise using the letter 'h' (h1, h2, h3, ...), which correspond to the 'Grids from different Systems' list.
Example: sin(g1) * g2 + 2 * h1
The following operators are available for the formula definition:

and(x, y) | Returns true (1), if both x and y are true (i.e. not 0) |
or(x, y) | Returns true (1), if at least one of both x and y is true (i.e. not 0) |
ifelse(c, x, y) | Returns x, if condition c is true (i.e. not 0), else y |
rand_u(x, y) | Random number, uniform distribution with minimum x and maximum y |
rand_g(x, y) | Random number, Gaussian distribution with mean x and standard deviation y |
xpos(), ypos() | Get the x/y coordinates for the current cell |
col(), row() | Get the current cell's column/row index |
ncols(), nrows() | Get the number of columns/rows |
