L = (∛5e)/4
I am not too good at math so i am not sure what that square root 3 thing is, but i know that it can’t be typed in as is, is there a function of math for this? if so how would the end result look like?
local e = somevalue
local L = ((5 * e) ^ 1/3)/4
If its cube root 5e, then the above code will work, if its (cube root 5) * e, then the code provided by Pokemoncraft will work.
Please move this topic to #help-and-feedback:scripting-support since this isn’t the right category.
local L = ((5 ^ 1 / 3) * e) / 4
You’re right must have misclicked lol, will try that.
local e = 2.71828
local L = 5^(1/3) * e / 4
make sure your exponent is in parentheses!! otherwise you’ll end up writing (5^1)/3

You forgot a bracket, else 5^1/3 won’t be divided by 4.
Misunderstood.
that code outputs the same result, multiplication with division is done left to right, no brackets needed
