|
| Dave I am working on a number of maths functions that includes loge log10 expe and exp10 x^y as well as trig functions. As you note it requires the specification of the mantassa and exponent desciption of the float variable for the RCX. Usually this (...) (24 years ago, 6-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
