I2S - Why have I not noticed before how awesome it is?

SanKakU · Feb 2, 2014

And why is it so hard to find the like of it?
Check this out:

JASS:

call BJDebugMsg(I2S(1027083+939261+816410+669894+655702+644599+637798+590472+561437+537042+509273+505902+481126+477759+476756+414824+411313+405372+405074+389220+389207+371888+363828+361293+359019+354179+347753+343218+331353+327377+323834+316636+315242+313939+301948+300741+297672+291869+288612+283932+279280+272924+268837+268710+268020+267685+266270+263962+262990+259593+257427+256411+253018+251832+251293+250100+247405+245671+237024+230299+221776+221741+218831+208491+200234+199141+195289+194931+192451+190894+190785+189980+188866+183879+179628+173999+173608+173002+168690+167026+165926+162199+161738+160158+159140+149396+147544+145315+139614+133943+131558+128471+126769+126101+122514+121955+118552+112500+102502+100609+98238+95518+93586+88307+82617+75689+63445))

That will come out to 30445754, which is the same as 30,445,754.

But, the question I'm proposing is, why aren't more people adding numbers up like this? I don't understand it. I can easily copy and paste this information into a test map and load up Warcraft 3 and run the map and trigger this message quickly, much more so than by using a regular calculator or by adding the numbers in my head or doing it by hand. So why not take things a step further and eliminate the need for Warcraft 3 and the World Editor? Does anyone have knowledge of such a calculator?

You know you can do the copy and paste this maths into the calculator that comes with your OS?

Nuclear · Feb 2, 2014

Or even better, http://www.wolframalpha.com/

It even solves your homework for you.

Eh? How can it be faster to open a wc3 map, open the trigger editor, create an event to run, put those numbers into a script call, save the map, run wc3, play the map, trigger the event.... than just using a calculator???????

Uhm, ALL calculators that I have used since my childhood does that... I never needed to code my own calculator for these simple purposes... I only coded my own when I wanted to make a statistical calculator...

It only has a precision of a 32 bit int so is pretty much useless for maths. MatLab or its open source GNU equivalent does the same as above but more light weight and more accurately (it supports 64 bit types or vectors). It also can use double precision floats for the computation of reals.

Graphical calculators also do the same and to higher precision.

really? never seen anyone doing it before. i'm using windows 7, do you know how to do it on that one?

uhmm....nevermind...i figured it out. huh, that's weird, when i tried to do it earlier, it wasn't working. i don't know why it's working now. that's so odd! well, now i look like an idiot.

didn't work. the string was too long for it.

that's as far as it got.

i'm guessing you are referring to the wolframalpha program? your use of the pronoun it is a bit mysterious.

so, if you were told to calculate all these with your own calculator, you are sure you wouldn't make a mistake?

do you even realize how many numbers that is and how many digits they have? don't be absurd.

Adiktuz · Feb 9, 2014

How are you sure you wouldn't make a mistake too if you put that long equation onto wc3 too?

GhostWolf · Feb 9, 2014

Oh, so you usually go around adding 87 different arbitrary numbers? Your calculations must be very meaningful.
Now, if you actually have anything with a meaning, do try using wolfram|alpha or really any kind of calculator.

The result is 30388653 by the way.

Well, WolframAlpha is pretty good if you want to actually calculate something, not just enter some stupid long-ass adding calculations. You can also input more if you get the Pro membership.

And by the way, you can just literally paste that into Google search and it'll give you the result.

Don't forget max URL length.

Pretty much any programming language can do this.

Code:
