Math Methods

Math.pow(x,y)
The Math.pow(x,y) method is used to return the value of x to the power y

<html>
<body>
<h2>The pow() function</h2>
<p>This method returns the result of x raised to power y</p>
<script>
function powerFunction(p1, p2) {
return Math.pow(p1,p2);
}
document.write( powerFunction(4, 3))
</script>
</body>
</html>

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

<html>
<body>
<h2>The sqrt() method</h2>
<p>This method returns the square root of the value passed</p>
<script>
function myFunction(p1) {
return Math.sqrt(p1);
}
document.write( myFunction(64))
</script>
</body>
</html>
Math.ceil() and Math.floor() methods
<html>
<head>
<title>The Math.ceil and Math.floor()</title>
<p>Click the button to round up the number</p>
<button onclick="roundup()">Round Up</button>
<p>Click the button to round down the number</p>
<button onclick="roundown()">Round Down</button>
<p>The Math.ceil() function returns the integer greater than or equal to the provided
number.</p>
<p id="msg1"></p>
<p>The Math.floor() function returns the integer smaller than or equal to the provided
number.</p>
<p id="msg2"></p>
<script>
function roundup(){
document.getElementById("msg1").innerHTML = Math.ceil(53.478);}
function roundown(){
document.getElementById("msg2").innerHTML = Math.floor(53.478);}
</script>
</head>
</html>

Math.max() and Math.min() methods


<html>
<head>
<title>Max and Min Methods</title>
<p>The <code>Math.max()</code> function returns the largest of zero or more
numbers.</p>
<p>The <code>Math.min()</code> function returns the smallest of zero or more
numbers.</p>
<script>
document.write(Math.max(-8,9,34,52,18,23),"<Br>")
document.write(Math.min(-8,9,34,52,18,23))
</script></head></html>
Math.PI property

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html><head>
<title>Math.PI</title>
<p><code>Math.PI</code> is a static property that represents the ratio of the
circumference of a circle to its diameter.
<br> Therefore the result will always the same number, regardless of the circle's size.</p>
<p id="msg"></p>
<script>
document.getElementById("msg").innerHTML = Math.PI;
</script>
</head>
</html>

Math.round() method
<!DOCTYPE html>
<title>Math.round()</title>
<p>The <code>Math.round()</code> function returns the value of the given number
rounded to the nearest integer.</p>
Rounding off 53.478
<p id="msg1"></p>
Rounding off 53.512
<p id="msg2"></p>
<script>
document.getElementById("msg1").innerHTML = Math.round(53.478);
document.getElementById("msg2").innerHTML = Math.round(53.512);
</script>
The Math.random()
The Math.random() function returns a floating-point, random number between 0 (inclusive)
and 1 (exclusive).

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head><title>Math.random()</title></head>
<body>
<p>The <code>Math.random()</code> function returns a floating-point, random number
between 0 (inclusive) and 1 (exclusive).</p>
<p id="msg1"></p>
Manipulating the random number
<p id="msg2"></p>
<script>
document.getElementById("msg1").innerHTML = Math.random();
document.getElementById("msg2").innerHTML = Math.random()*100;
</script>
</body>
</html>

<!DOCTYPE html>
<HTML>
<head><title>Manipulating Math.random()</title></head>
<body>
<p><code>Math.random()</code> returns a floating-point number
<p id="msg1"></p>
We can multiply Math.random() by 100 then use <code>Math.floor()</code>
to return the largest integer less than or equal to the random number.
<p id="msg2"></p>
We can multiply Math.random() by 100 then use <code>Math.ceil()</code>
to return the smallest integer greater than or equal to the random number.<br>
This provides a more uniform distribution than using <code>Math.round()</code>.</p>
<p id="msg3"></p>
<script>
document.getElementById("msg1").innerHTML = Math.random();
document.getElementById("msg2").innerHTML = Math.floor(Math.random() * 100);
document.getElementById("msg3").innerHTML = Math.ceil(Math.random() * 100);
</script>
</body>
</HTML>
