add an inverse function to the function block

what this would do is find the inverse of a number!
this means that a negative becomes a positive while a positive becomes a negetive!
here is a project that explains and shows this!

please leave comment on what you think 

Not a bad idea  , but it's already fairly simple to do. You can just do one of the following:


  (( 0 <-> number ))

Or,

  (( -1  <*> number ))

I hope you understand, and hopefully that helps with whatever you need that block for.

But why do you want a new block for something that can be accomplished with one already existing block?

if you just want the inverse of a negative number, you could use the absolute value block

i agee but if you just have to make the block I came up with this:

I agree with Coka; although it's possible to do already, it's a good idea to implement because a lot of users don't know what to do.

I say no, because scratch is to teach programming languages and something this simple can be learned. Better now than when you move on to another language.
