All right, I can concede that in higher math, the use of tau doesn't greatly impact anything (although it still does). The point though, is that pi is fundamentally incorrect as the so-called circle constant. Furthermore, the use of tau would significantly change teaching. Trigonometry and radians would become so, so much easier to grasp. For example: sin 2t. Well, that's 2 revolutions of a circle, which means we're back where we started. Hence, 0. Logically sound: it's much easier for a student to grasp that t=1 revolution than 2pi=1 revolution

I said e^tau i = 1Damn, now I don't have 1111 posts  Integral over all space in polar coordinates: ∫ 0τ∫ 0∞f(r,θ)r d rdθ Normal distribution: (1/√τσ)e −(x−μ)^2/2σ^2Fourier transform: f(x)=∫ -∞∞F(k)e iτkxdk F(k)=∫ -∞∞f(x)e −iτkxdx Cauchy’s integral formula: f(a)=1/iτ∮ γf(z)/(z−a) dz nth roots of unity: e iτ/nThe Riemann zeta function for positive even integers: ζ(2n)=∑ k=1∞1/k 2n=B nτ 2n/[2(2n)!] n=1,2,3,…

New Euler's identity: e τi=1. WHAT NOW. Or e τi=1+0. Whatever. You didn't watch the video, did you? As for A=1/2 τ r^2, see the first post. And all those 4π's just change to 2τ's, it's not any more or less awkward. Also, I have 1111 posts. Therefore, your argument is invalid (j/k lol  ) Edit at HOMER-16: No, the point is that we should always go with tau over pi. Name me ONE equation where pi is better and more mathematically convenient than tau.

I'm not sure why everyone makes an issue of Pi being better than Tau. It's not really important, since Pi is a constant multiple of Tau. That's like saying that 3 is better than 6 because 6*.5 = 3 Not to troll or anything, but it works both ways  Anyway, I think that it really is more important. Practically EVERY mathematical formula using pi uses 2pi, not just pi. And conceptually, it's way more fundamental. 360 degrees = 1 tau, not 2pi. One half tau = one half a circle. See?

Tau references radius, pi references diameter

Something not mentioned in the video. Take a look at what happens to our circumference formula. C=τrAnd to our area formula A=∫C dr=∫τr dr
=1/2τr2Now how beautiful is that? Falls right in line with our Gravitational Acceleration Function: y=1/2gt2Hooke's Law: U=1/2kx2Kinetic Energy Function: 1/2mv2

It's alive! This project is now off of its unofficial hiatus and back onto active development. Fixed a few bugs and continuing to create tiles and maps

Well said. That kind of thing really bothers me too. Give props to Axe and spread the word, people! Without it, your program wouldn't even exist

You can't use files in sprite commands. You'd best stick with copying to L1 for now

Wow, my slight activity slump just has to coincide with something like this. Well written message yunhua, I hope everything gets sorted out, and I hope that Omnom will be back up soon.

You could also do something like.. If getKey
inData(,Data(stuff,0))->wherever
End
A bit easier to deal with, but idk how optimized it is Edit: I think it may be a couple of bytes larger . Oh well.

Thanks guys  Installing LMMS now, hopefully I'll be able to spruce it up a bit and get a better recording

Yes. Unfortunately. Well, to be clear, you can't call subroutines from the external program that refer to the parent app. You can make your own subroutines in the external program and call them only in that external program and it'll work fine. The external program is literally a separate entity from the parent application.

Thanks. Btw, does anyone know of any good free composing software I could use? I'm so broke I can't even get the ten dollars out for Finale Notepad....

Vars and other two-byte pieces go to 65535. So if you're using 256 precision, you have a range of 0-255
