  Re: On a scale of 0 to 10?
 
(...) Oh yeah! (...) Oh... yeah. (...) Hm. Double checked the math-- it appears solid [1], which would mean that there's no viable solution for: s = Ae^(q + B) + C for coordinates (-1,0), (0,5), (0.25,10). Darn. Hm. I guess that also means that any (...) (22 years ago, 26-Mar-03, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) *snip* (...) summed exponents like that can be re-written in this way: e^B * e^.25 + e^B * e^-1 = 2e^B (e^.25 + e^-1) * e^B = 2e^B Uh oh. Divide both sides by e^B and we've got (e^.25 + e^-1) = 2 1.652 = 2 Which ain't right. I think your math (...) (22 years ago, 26-Mar-03, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: On a scale of 0 to 10?
 
(...) Thought about that... If necessary I guess, but I'm pretty sure there's a way to do it. I think what I need is: s = Ae^(q + B) + C And at the moment, I've solved: C = -Ae^(B - 1) A = 10 / (e^(B + .25) - e^(B - 1)) And I'm scratching my head (...)

  Re: On a scale of 0 to 10?
 
(...) How about a double-linear solution? from -1 to 0, translate linearly from 0 to 5. From 0 to .25, translate linearly from 5 to 10. You won't have a single equation, but that seems to accomplish what you want, right? Adrian (22 years ago, 26-Mar-03, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  On a scale of 0 to 10?
 
I've got a function that represents a quality rating, based on 2 parameters, which are on a scale of 0 to 1: (d-k)*k => quality (q) Notice that this yields a sort of wacky result, insofar as the quality can vary between -1 and 0.25, not -1 and 1 or (...)
