math utilities

i tried to register math functions but always fail. r = engine->RegisterGlobalFunction("float sin (float)", asFUNCTION(sin), asCALL_CDECL); assert( r >= 0 ); i wonder if there is any available math functions in angelscript.

Regular "sin" returns double and wants a double argument. I'm not sure but this might make the registering fail since you declare it as returning float and wanting a float argument.

Try to register with "double sin(double)" instead, or you could register "sinf" with asFUNCTION(sinf). sinf is just like sin except that it returns float and accepts a float argument.
i tried double also, it failed too.

What will be the return value on success/failure?

(Ie is the assert correct with >= instead of >)

This works (I just verified it):

int r = engine->RegisterGlobalFunction("float sin(float)", asFUNCTION(sinf), asCALL_CDECL); assert( r >= 0 );


You'll have to do '#include <math.h>' of course.

Kitt3n:

The return value is negative on error. So the correct test to do is 'r >= 0'.

Here's my math-collection, just in case anyone might find a use for it.
I really can't remember if I wrote it myself, if somebody else wrote it or even if it's straight from the AS-source :)
Comments & suggestions are always welcome ofcourse.
