Math — bubblecode Docs

bubblecode supports standard arithmetic and a library of built-in math functions.

Arithmetic operators

Operator	Meaning	Example
`+`	Addition	`2 + 3`
`-`	Subtraction	`10 - 4`
`*`	Multiplication	`6 * 7`
`/`	Division	`20 / 4`
`mod`	Modulo	`17 mod 5`
`^`	Exponent	`2 ^ 10`

example.bubble

say "2 + 3 =" && (2 + 3)
say "10 - 4 =" && (10 - 4)
say "6 * 7 =" && (6 * 7)
say "20 / 4 =" && (20 / 4)
say "17 mod 5 =" && (17 mod 5)
say "2 ^ 10 =" && (2 ^ 10)

Parentheses control evaluation order, just like in normal math.

Built-in math functions

Function	Description
`abs(n)`	Absolute value
`round(n)`	Round to nearest integer
`floor(n)`	Round down
`ceil(n)`	Round up
`sqrt(n)`	Square root
`min(...)`	Smallest of the arguments
`max(...)`	Largest of the arguments

example.bubble

say "abs(-42) =" && abs(-42)
say "round(3.7) =" && round(3.7)
say "floor(3.7) =" && floor(3.7)
say "ceil(3.2) =" && ceil(3.2)
say "sqrt(144) =" && sqrt(144)
say "min(5, 3, 8, 1) =" && min(5, 3, 8, 1)
say "max(5, 3, 8, 1) =" && max(5, 3, 8, 1)

Random numbers

The random(n) function returns a random integer between 1 and n (inclusive).

example.bubble

say "Random 1-10:" && random(10)
say "Random 1-100:" && random(100)
say "Random 1-6 (dice roll):" && random(6)
