Please Help!!!

Hi. I'm making a smart chat that actually can sense keywords and reply in the proper way.
I'm having trouble with that part and I could use use some help.   hmm
Besides needing help with that, in the operators area, what does the ABS SQRT SIN etc. mean?

Please help!

Re: Please Help!!!

The Abs, is Absolute value; SQRT, square root; SIN, Sine; Cos, Cosine; Tan, Tangent; Log, Logarithm; A:Sin,Tan, and Cos, are Arc,Sin,Tan or Cos. (inverse trigonometric functions); Ln, not to sure, probably natural logarithms, maybe; And 10^ is basically being able to write a really big # as something, smaller. with the other value below 10, and above 1. As for sensor boards I can't help you there.

Okay.
Just I'm not really sure how to do it. I don't know how to make it sense keywords, so i'm not sure how to do it. I posted this forum for some help. Maybe you can help me out?

ps
Please click on my name and look at my projects!

Re: Please Help!!!

Abs=the value of a number from 0, SO if # = -#, It becomes +#
SQRT= #/#
I don't know about sine,tangent,logarithms, ETC. In scratch, like the purpose but its used for finding angle measurements in triangles.
