in reply to Simple calculation.

Eg. rounding to the nearest integer works above, but how about if the inputs are: 0.022 .. 0.086 by 10?

Kinda like dollars/cents, multiply by 1000 (or 10**$precision) ?

    Dog! I hate that site: So many jumped up little hitlers and so much dross.

    1. Eg. "(EDIT -- I've found an implementation of Scale1() that I did in Perl)" Liar. The code he posted contains (amongst others):
      • use strict;
      • @vInt = {1, 2, 5, 10};
      • if ($xMaxp < $xMax) $xMaxp = $xMax;
      • $par = (-3.1, 11.1, 5, 5.2, 10.1, 5, -12000, -100, 9);
    2. Another "perl" answer contains (amongst others):    $label_arr[] = array('label' => $label, 'x_pos' => $width_between * $i);.

    Not sure what's worse. Trying to decode Javascript kiddy "perl"; or the COBOLFortran?! they were trying to transcribe :)

    Damn! I'd forgotten just how horrible '70s languages were.
