Math
Math creates a new trace that displays the result of applying a mathematical function (e.g., Sum, Product, FFT) to one or more source traces. Operations
can be chained by using one math function as a source for the other. The math trace always opens in a separate grid from the source and can be viewed
along side it. One important distinction between math functions and measurement parameters is that the result of math is always another waveform,
whereas the result of measurement is a number.
