^title Num Class

Static Methods

Num.fromString(value)

Attempts to parse value as a decimal literal and return it as an instance of Num. If the number cannot be parsed null will be returned.

It is a runtime error if value is not a string.

Num.pi

The value of π.

Num.largest

The largest representable numeric value.

Num.smallest

The smallest positive representable numeric value.

Methods

abs

The absolute value of the number.

:::wren
System.print( (-123).abs ) //> 123

acos

The arc cosine of the number.

asin

The arc sine of the number.

atan

The arc tangent of the number.

atan(x)

The arc tangent of the number when divided by x, using the signs of the two numbers to determine the quadrant of the result.

ceil

Rounds the number up to the nearest integer.

:::wren
System.print(1.5.ceil)    //> 2
System.print((-3.2).ceil) //> -3

cos

The cosine of the number.

floor

Rounds the number down to the nearest integer.

:::wren
System.print(1.5.floor)    //> 1
System.print((-3.2).floor) //> -4

isInfinity

Whether the number is positive or negative infinity or not.

:::wren
System.print(99999.isInfinity)  //> false
System.print((1/0).isInfinity)  //> true

isInteger

Whether the number is an integer or has some fractional component.

:::wren
System.print(2.isInteger)   //> true
System.print(2.3.isInteger) //> false

isNan

Whether the number is not a number. This is false for normal number values and infinities, and true for the result of 0/0, the square root of a negative number, etc.

log

The natural logarithm of the number.

pow(power)

Raises this number (the base) to power. Returns nan if the base is negative.

round

Rounds the number to the nearest integer.

:::wren
System.print(1.5.round)    //> 2
System.print((-3.2).round) //> -3
System.print((-3.7).round) //> -4

sin

The sine of the number.

sqrt

The square root of the number. Returns nan if the number is negative.

tan

The tangent of the number.

- operator

Negates the number.

:::wren
var a = 123
System.print(-a) //> -123

-(other), +(other), /(other), *(other) operators

The usual arithmetic operators you know and love. All of them do 64-bit floating point arithmetic. It is a runtime error if the right-hand operand is not a number. Wren doesn't roll with implicit conversions.

%(denominator) operator

The floating-point remainder of this number divided by denominator.

It is a runtime error if denominator is not a number.

<(other), >(other), <=(other), >=(other) operators

Compares this and other, returning true or false based on how the numbers are ordered. It is a runtime error if other is not a number.

~ operator

Performs bitwise negation on the number. The number is first converted to a 32-bit unsigned value, which will truncate any floating point value. The bits of the result of that are then negated, yielding the result.

&(other) operator

Performs bitwise and on the number. Both numbers are first converted to 32-bit unsigned values. The result is then a 32-bit unsigned number where each bit is true only where the corresponding bits of both inputs were true.

It is a runtime error if other is not a number.

|(other) operator

Performs bitwise or on the number. Both numbers are first converted to 32-bit unsigned values. The result is then a 32-bit unsigned number where each bit is true only where the corresponding bits of one or both inputs were true.

It is a runtime error if other is not a number.

..(other) operator

Creates a Range representing a consecutive range of numbers from the beginning number to the ending number.

:::wren
var range = 1.2..3.4
System.print(range.min)         //> 1.2
System.print(range.max)         //> 3.4
System.print(range.isInclusive) //> true

...(other) operator

Creates a Range representing a consecutive range of numbers from the beginning number to the ending number not including the ending number.

:::wren
var range = 1.2...3.4
System.print(range.min)         //> 1.2
System.print(range.max)         //> 3.4
System.print(range.isInclusive) //> false
