JavaScript Math Object

JavaScript - Math.PI

Math.PI return the value of PI

Example

Math.PI;            // returns 3.141592653589793

JavaScript - Math.round()

Math.round(x) returns the value of x rounded to its nearest integer.

Example

Math.round(4.7);    // returns 5
Math.round(4.4);    // returns 4

JavaScript - Math.pow()

Math.pow(x, y) returns the value of x to the power of y:

Example

Math.pow(8, 2);      // returns 64

JavaScript - Math.sqrt()

Math.sqrt(x) returns the square root of x.

Example

Math.sqrt(64);      // returns 8

JavaScript - Math.abs()

Math.abs(x) returns the absolute (positive) value of x.

Example

Math.abs(-4.7);     // returns 4.7

JavaScript - Math.ceil()

Math.ceil(x) returns the value of x rounded up to its nearest integer.

Example

Math.ceil(4.4);     // rMath.ceil(4.4);     // returns 5eturns 5

JavaScript - Math.floor()

Math.floor(x) returns the value of x rounded down to its nearest integer.

Example

Math.floor(4.7);    // returns 4

JavaScript - Math.sin()

Math.sin(x) returns the sine (a value between -1 and 1) of the angle x (given in radians).

If you want to use degrees instead of radians, you have to convert degrees to radians:

Angle in radians = Angle in degrees x PI / 180.

Example

Math.sin(90 * Math.PI / 180);     // returns 1 (the sine of 90 degrees)

JavaScript - Math.cos()

Math.cos(x) returns the cosine (a value between -1 and 1) of the angle x (given in radians).

If you want to use degrees instead of radians, you have to convert degrees to radians:

Angle in radians = Angle in degrees x PI / 180.

Example

Math.cos(0 * Math.PI / 180);     // returns 1 (the cos of 0 degrees)

Math.min() and Math.max()

Math.min() and Math.max() can be used to find the lowest or highest value in a list of arguments.

Example

Math.min(0, 150, 30, 20, -8, -200);  // returns -200

Math.max(0, 150, 30, 20, -8, -200);  // returns 150

JavaScript - Math.random()

Math.random() returns a random number between 0 (inclusive), and 1 (exclusive).

Example

Math.random();     // returns a random number
