Square root

[Chompy]

Simple question, is there square root (built-in) in gscript?

x^.5 is the same thing.

Thanks, was hoping for a built-in one tho, but that will work

You could create a public function squareRoot( v) return v ^ 0.5;
xP

I thought that sqrt(val) worked as well? Or am I soo 5 years ago or something

maybe I will

Didn't work, but I know that sqrt(float) works in some other script languages like C I think

Massokre's Interesting Fact of the Day:
The ENIAC, a computer that was used in the design of the hydrogen bomb, had a divider/square-rooter built into it's hardware. It could perform 40 divides per second or 3 square roots per second.

:O I didn't know that for sure

Nice, now Stefan can find this computer and connect it too graal?
Did you make the bomb?

Square root is done by x^0.5, which is actually internally converted into a sqrt() C call for best speed

:O so x^0.5 equal to sqrt(x)? nice

*wants his xor operator back* :-(

I'd even be willing to write the program that would convert everyone's nw files and scripts from

a^b to pow(a,b),
a^=b to a=pow(a,b)
and,
a xor b to a^b

How I use Xor, is this >_>

PHP Code:

function onCreated() {
 var1 = "foo";
 var2 = "bar";
 echo(var1 xor var2 ? 1 : 0); // would return true
}
/*
   True  = Not alike
   False = Alike
*/

X_x.. Why are you using xor on strings? That's not how it works :x

Might as well be doing be doing "f" xor "b" considering I believe binary operators compare only one binary value (that is, the first binary value per argument)... Not that that piece of code is of any use to anyone (see Okie's post). "f" xor "b" is char(6), whatever that is. char(6) has an ASCII of 6 which is not 0, thus is true...

well, xor works logically, too. I would imagine that that would return false since both strings exist.
