@atleast, @atmost, @confidence, @max, @min

@atleast(optional)Gives a minimum estimated value for an approximate measurement. Value is a decimal number.

@atmost(optional)Gives a maximum estimated value for an approximate measurement. Value is a decimal number.

@confidence(optional)Specifies the degree of statistical confidence (between zero and one) that a value falls within the range specified by min and max, or the proportion of observed values that fall within that range. Value conforms to data.CONFIDENCE.

@max(optional)Where the measurement summarizes more than one observation or a range of values, supplies the maximum value observed. Value is a decimal number.

@min(optional)Where the measurement summarizes more than one observation or a range of values, supplies the minimum value observed. Value is a decimal number.
