October 18, 2007Lots of Mathematics Scripts
This week we've got lots of mathematics scripts. Leif902 loads us down with five scripts, starting with a pair of alternative arcsine and arccosine functions. He also gives us a pair of data storage helpers, one to find how many bits are needed to store a number and another to find the largest value that can be stored in the given number of bits. Lastly is a geometry function to compute the slope of a line. Yourself graces us with a pair of probability tools, one that computes the Gauss error function of a value and another that returns a random number with exact Gaussian distribution. IceMetalPunk debuts with a script to round a value to a certain number of places. Newcomer Bryan presents a pair of scripts to convert fractions to binary digits and back again. OpticalLiam gives a handy little toggle function for his first contribution to GMLscripts.com. And wrapping things up is xot with a script to produce a list of prime factors for a number and another to retreive the nth fibonacci number.
