| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| math.random(x,y) | Returns a pseudorandom number from x to y (y is optional, if there is no y, the value will be generated from 1 to x) |
| math.randomseed(x) | Sets x as the seed for the pseudo-random seed number generator. |
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| math.pi | Value of Pi) |
| math.huge | equal to Infinite |
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| math.abs(x) | Returns the absolute value of x (negative to positive) |
| math.sqrt(x) | Returns the Square root of X |
| math.max(x,…) | Returns the maximun value from its arguments eg math.max(99,54,23,15,233) → 223 |
| math.min(x,…) | Returns the minimun value from its arguments eg math.max(99,54,23,15,233) → 15 |
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| math.floor(x) | Returns the largest integer smaller than or equal to x |
| math.ceil(x) | Returns the smallest integer larger than or equal to x |
| math.modf(x) | Returns the integral part of x and the fractional part of x. eg: math.modf(12.321) returns 12 and 0.321 |
| math.fmod(x,y) | Returns the remainder of the division of x by y rounding the quotient towards zero. eg: math.fmod(10.5 , 3.2) returns ≈0.099999999999998 |
