What is math.round() do? In kirupa's Random numbers tutorial, he explained the use of math.floor(), but said round() was for another time. Yet I see that, and not .floor() in use in the random movement tutorial.

View 5 RepliesHere is the problem:
var p:int = 0;
var n:Number = 0;
n = 32.999999999999999;
p = Math.floor(n);
trace(p); // returns 33
n = 32.11111111111111;
p = Math.floor(n);
trace(p); // returns 32
I would expect both of these to return 32. I have searched, and it seems this is an unreported bug in AS3. Or ... am I doing something wrong?
Wat is the diffrence between these two?

I followed a tutorial from actionscript.org , the tricky part is that i wanted to change the Kb to a % display and it's messing up.Here's the previous code [AS]lastFrame = 1;
function loadedIndicatorFrame() {
var newFrame = int((_parent.getBytesLoaded() / _parent.getBytesTotal()) * 65) + 2;
if (newFrame - lastFrame > 4) { //too far

I want to round a whole number down to the nearest whole 10th. Like 52, becomes 50. Or 49, becomes 40. Or 2005, becomes 2000. Does that make sense? I imagine it has a math.floor approach, but I can not figure it out.

View 3 RepliesI am trying to add an eventlistener to the stage to respond to a resizing. When doing so i want to keep the relative position of a movieclip-object constant to the upper and leftmost edges, without changing the alignmode of the stage to top left. This can be achieved as shown below - examplified with two classes and reference to fla implied. The problem is now: When supplying the crucial statements with a Math.round, the movieclip-object gets displaced pixelwise with each new resizing:
myMovieClip.x -= Math.round((deltaX / 2));
myMovieClip.y -= Math.round((deltaY / 2));
Whereas the solution without Math.round is rock stable so it doesn't move at all, as it is not supposed to either! Can anyone figure out why? I know it's a luxury-problem, as my use case is solved. The problem is that i don't know why? Shouldn't the use of Math.round just assure the int-value? Such a small issue could easily spoil the whole app! And i fear that i have misunderstood something fundamental in as3, and suddenly become unpleasantly surprised.

View 4 Replieshow to fix this:
theText.scrollV = Math.round((slider.y area.y)*theText.maxScrollV/90);

It looks like a proper statement to me... all open brackets are closed.
So here is a piece of code that I have seen used a lot but don't really quite understand:
myVar = Math.min(Math.max(myVar, this.min), this.max);
or some variation thereof. I understand that the function first finds the maximum value of two values then turns around and uses that to find the minimum between two values.why this is done? And how do you know when to use it?

View 1 RepliesI have a simple AS1 script running on a button:
//
on (release) {
a = Number(answer2);
w = Number(withvat);
v = Number(vat2);
answer2 = (w / 117.5 * 100);
vat2 = (w / 117.5 * 100 * 0.175);
}
It works but the results are sometimes many decimal places long. Any way I can make my results round to two decimal places (accurately). So 5.6994 becomes 5.70 etc.
Is it possible to round the corners of a flash stage, so that when I insert the SWF into dreamweaver, it inserts more of an oval instead of a rectangle?
View 2 RepliesI'm making an application in actionscript that deals a lot with numbers. One of the problems, which has been driving me nuts for a while now, is "almost integers". Essentially, if I do something like the square root of 3, then square it, it gives me 2.99999999999999 (this is just the easiest example to test with). I've tried forcing it to round to a certain decimal place ([URL]), using toFixed, toPrecision, and math.round.
I've been spending all afternoon on this, and have found that actionscript uses 15 point/precision floating numbers. So with the squareroot/square of 3 above, if I specify it to go to 14 decimal places/significant figures, it gives me 3.0000000000001 (essentially ending with a 1), and if I specify it to 15 digits, it gives me (2.9999999999999).
I'm pretty sure that Actionscript is trolling me, because if the number was 2.9999999999999 (15 digits) and I rounded it to 15 digits... it'd make sense to keep it the same because there is no number after the last 9. However, if I round it to 14 digits, shouldn't the 14th 9 (15th digit) be chopped off, and the 13th 9 (now the last digit) rounded up, and making it carry over until it just becomes 3? Where did the 1 come from when rounding to 14 digits? If there was a 9 before that, shouldn't it have made it round to 3 when rounding to 15 digits?
