CalculationService; a brand new module script that allows calculation to be made easier! There are currently 111 unique functions and every function returns a value! Pass in the numbers the function requires and you will be given a value straight away!

If you don’t understand some words, I made some comments regarding what the words mean.

:warning: REMINDER: If there are some miscalculation made by me, immediately tell if error found

Any recommendation for calculation methods are appreciated!

amazing, will be using it in the future for more math-y projects

what does that mean is this special

I just made it there so it feels more special lol

I am pretty sure it’s like this

local function multiply(x, y) --> I know it's possible in luau but it's an example
   return x * y -- Notice the `return` keyword
end

print(multiply(10, 2)) --> 20

Oof, what a huge list of calculations, Now I don’t have to go to google and search up something and get it, but I wouldn’t use it much as I’m not using math much in roblox

Hello! I have updated Calculation Service again! Took me a bit of time to make them but ye. Everything new can be found under the Update Section

#7

This is really cool, well done!
I like how everything is so organized in the module, and easy to understand which is rare now a days. I might try and add some stuff in!

V.1.2.0 is out! All things that got updated are all in the Update Section!

Perhaps some interpolation functions would be a nice addition?

#10

I think that Linear Interpolations are already covered by Roblox ( Lerp() ) and really the rest is probably in TweenService

Saw the function list, and i was sold. i wont only use this. i will study this so i can improve my own math

Hmm… wouldn’t you agree that’s a long function name? It may even cover an entire line of code.

I agree, will change at the next update (is soon btw).

Regarding the comments, I mean yea comments are not that useful but still and maybe fill up the code. But I want to make it so that people can also understand what certain “math words” are and maybe it can help them out a bit :slight_smile:

#14

I’m not sure if i missed it and its already added, but may I suggest adding a lerp function? sometimes people want to lerp only numbers and :Lerp() only works with vector3, CFrame and, Color3.

I disagree with the “Don’t write comments” video, I use comments to help me understand, and as a wise man said:

Hungarian is a peek into the world of how people would speak if they spoke in computer code

I remember you helped me in a #help-and-feedback:scripting-support topic, so why not add GetTimezone(timezone: number) to get the timezone

I also agree with @EvilVSCPlays here, I also need the CalculateLinearInterpolation function

#16

I actually did that right after I helped you lol

oh yea and for the Lerp I guess there are 2 methods
(a, b, t)
(y1, y2, x1, x2, n)

I did the first method but idk if i should maybe add the second as basically both work the same

#17

Another update! All update changes are in the Updates Section

Note to Matrix Operation (is used in comments too):

Write out Matrices like this:

local myMatrix = {
	{1, 2, 3},
	{4, 5, 6},
	etc.
}

Next updates will include more physics-based calculations (maybe)

#18

I think it would be better if you let the user pass in the function to integrate rather than having a predefined function.
