Usage: .exp 2 5
calculates 2 to the 5th power
Exponent cannot exceed 5
If anyone thinks of a way to get this to work without exponent restrictions, then please let me know!
Full Version: Raising Whole Numbers To A Power
I was bored so I wrote this
Usage: .exp 2 5
calculates 2 to the 5th power
Exponent cannot exceed 5

Hello! my name is JyzJmz
| CODE |
[FUNCTION exp] local.number = <strarg <args>> local.number1 = <local.number> for <eval <streat <args>>+-1> local.number *= <local.number1> endfor return <local.number> |
or my version (sorry, gotta write one... shortest one wins).
[FUNCTION EXPO]//I renamed, because some people may have an EXP as in level system, like me.
LOCAL.NUMBER=1
FOR <eval <ARGN2>>
LOCAL.NUMBER=<eval <LOCAL.NUMBER>*<ARGN1>>
ENDFOR
RETURN <eval <LOCAL.NUMBER>>
[FUNCTION EXPO]//I renamed, because some people may have an EXP as in level system, like me.
LOCAL.NUMBER=1
FOR <eval <ARGN2>>
LOCAL.NUMBER=<eval <LOCAL.NUMBER>*<ARGN1>>
ENDFOR
RETURN <eval <LOCAL.NUMBER>>

Hey man, you used too many "eval's"
I win
mine is less lines, and I used ARGN1/2 which doesn't take up much compared to STREAT and STRARG 
.
.
OK here we go again posting revisions of other people's submissions....
[FUNCTION EXPO]//I renamed, because some people may have an EXP as in level system, like me.
LOCAL.NUMBER=1
FOR <eval <ARGN2>> // Used one time
LOCAL.NUMBER=<eval <LOCAL.NUMBER>*<ARGN1>> // Used 6times
ENDFOR
RETURN <eval <LOCAL.NUMBER>> // Used one time // Total:8
[FUNCTION exp]
local.number = <strarg <args>>
local.number1 = <local.number>
for <eval <streat <args>>+-1>
local.number *= <local.number1>
endfor
return <local.number>
Mine have a total of 3 "Useless things"
so the best thing would be:
LOCAL.NUMBER=1
FOR <eval <ARGN2>> // Used one time
LOCAL.NUMBER=<eval <LOCAL.NUMBER>*<ARGN1>> // Used 6times
ENDFOR
RETURN <eval <LOCAL.NUMBER>> // Used one time // Total:8

Btw, my first function was only to help maximus because he's friend
And my other was to compete SpehDragoon because he's nice... hehe

He kind of asked yah know.
lol.... this is amusing
Yeah earlier today, i was trying to figure out how to use a FOR loop, because thats what first came into my head, but i never figured it out, lol... and Tattooed, I did ask for help along with a submission, so it should be ok.
Well then post this in scripting help! This is for completed scripts...or did you forget to read that part?
He posted a complete script.
He knew his script wasn't perfect but it still do the job.
We helped him.
There is nothing bad about it.

What is Bad about it is that people are having responsive threads on forum script submission section.
Please don't dispute this.
If it isn't ready then don't post a submission with a request.
I know you think I'm poking my nose and maybe I am, but it's all for the sake of clarity in the Submission Section.
I won't back down on this issue...
Period.
In other words... don't reply anymore and bump the thread up... (for those who don't know what it means). There are problems with that... so I hope this one clarifying the last one will be the last one... erm, yeah.
