Math library

This library adds extra math functions to Ground. Unlike the official math library, all these features are coded in pure Ground.

Please note that you cannot copy a single function from the package, as some functions rely on other functions in the library.

Functions

fun -double !sin -double &input

Gets the sin of input.

fun -double !cos -double &input

Gets the cos of input.

fun -double !tan -double &input

Gets the tan of input.

fun -double !intexp -double &base -int &power

Returns base^power, for positive integer values of power. Returns 1 if power is non-positive (and thus is inaccurate for negative values of power).

fun -double !sqrt -double &input

Returns the positive value x that satisfies x^2 = input. Throws an error if input is negative.

fun -double !mod -double &in -double &modulus

Returns n such that n is congruent to the input modulo $modulus, where n is at least 0 and less than $modulus.

fun -double !random -int &seed

Gets a random double in the domain [0,1), using a LCG. A seed is required.

fun -double !pi

Returns pi to the maximum accuracy that doubles can store.

fun -double !itod -int &input

Returns the input as a double.

fun -int !dtoi -double &input

Returns the input as an integer.
