* (multiplication) operator
| Type | Assocation | Precedence | Input types | Output types |
| binary | left | 5 | int float complex color * float | int float complex color |
This operator multiplies both operands and returns the result. The type of the result is equal to the largest type of the operands (complex is larger than float, and float is larger than int).
The multiplication operator also accepts a color operand on the left side, and a float operand on the right side. In this case, it multiplies each color component by the float operand and returns the result.
Examples:
3 * 2 ; 6 3.15 * 9 ; 28.35 (3, 2) * (6, 4) ; (10, 24) rgba(0.4, 0.3, 0.2, 1) * 2 ; rgba(0.8, 0.6, 0.4, 2)
