(...) The most efficient way to do it is to use Taylor Series approximations of the functions. Decide how much precision you need, and then write functions that evaluate the first few terms in the appropriate series. Usually, a series will converge (...)

[Ben Davis] spake unto the ether: (...) Hmm, I think you want c = ((float)(x))/((float)(y)); Otherwise, the division will be done first as integers, giving an integer quotient, which you're then turning into a float. *Rich* (27 years ago, 14-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi John- You can convert quantities from one data type to another (it's called "casting", I believe). The following computes the quantity x/y, then converts it to a float: ---...--- int x, y; float c; float divide ( int x, int y) { c = (float) (...)

Now that I got past my nested function problem I have discovered that IC does not like mixing variable types. For instance, this results in an error: int x, y; float c; float divide ( int x, int y) { c = (x/y); return c; } IC will not let me (...) (27 years ago, 14-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
