Yeah im kinda confused on what this line does:
if x^3 + 2*x^2 < y then
Its in a function (isAboveFunction) on this page.
Here is the function
function isAboveFunction(x,y)
if x^3 + 2*x^2 < y then
return 0
end
return 1
end
I was trying to get some examples for the library but i didnt really understand that function…
Thanks!

This is an example, it does nothing.

If you actually put it on a script it will work…
(I mean the whole example)

What is calling the function exactly then? This is just an example code and just makes up numbers and does math.

uh… some intense mathematical function that takes 2 arguments and returns them depending on the result

Yeah, i can pretty much tell… what are those “^” signs tho?

function that takes two parameters: x, y
if x³ + 2 × x² is less than y then return 0,
otherwise return 1
in simple words.

local correctAnswer = isAboveFunction (coords.x,coords.y)
Pretty much just doing math to get a correct answer (just pretend x and y is a 4 or 5 number…
They are exponents. For example 2^2 = 4. You can find a list of operators and what not here .

WhatDid_HeDo:
if x^3 + 2*x^2 < y then
i believe what this does is when the result of x paremeter with the power of 3, and 2 times x parameter with the power of 2 is smaller than y parameter it would return 1, if not then it will return 0

Oh so pretty much the “^” is the power? (Forgot wats its called)
So 3^3 is 27 if i am correct…
Oh alright, i get it better now… thanks (cant spell god)
