I am trying to make a simulated baseball thing that shows batting average by dividing Hits by At Bats, but the variable simply says "0.2" rather then "0.245" or whatever. Obviously, this is a big problem, as simply "0.2" hardly tells a person anything at all. So, is there any way to get the variable to only round off to 3 decimal places?

Use a list instead.

Frogdunker · 2011-09-05 16:45:04

I guess that works, though it does make everything look unorganized

Another way

Set[Variable] to ( (X) join () )

Edit: Just put the score in the Join block and erase the other side of the join block.

actually, it still doesnt round to 3 decimal places...

laptop97 · 2011-09-05 16:52:25

I'll come up with a script hopefully in a little bit.

Okay i did the join thing, now all i need to know is how to round it to 3 places so its not .233333333333333

Hm... well, you could multiply by a factor of 10 (such as 1000) before dividing. That way it wouldn't try to round it. If you still wanted it to show it as a decimal, you could use the "Join" block to add a decimal point.

This will need 3 variables: Score, Actual Score, Index

The score and index should be hidden, the actual score should be show.
When round score is broadcasted the variable score should be set.

When I recieve broadcast [round score]
Set [Actual Score] to ()
Set [Index] to (1)
Repeat Until <(letter (index) of (score)) = (.) >
Set [Actual Score] to (join (Actual Score)(letter(index) of (score) ) )
Change [Index] by (1)
{End of Repeat Until}
Repeat (4)
Set [Actual Score] to (join (Actual Score)(letter(index) of (score) ) )
Change [Index] by (1)
{End of Repeat}

Sorry if that's hard to understand

okay i think i got it...let me try it and see if it works

Frogdunker · 2011-09-05 17:21:44

im fairly certain i copied everything correctly, but it is still not rounding...

laptop97 · 2011-09-05 17:29:13

Upload it and I will probably be able to find the problem.

Frogdunker · 2011-09-05 17:33:53

Thanks for trying to help me though
it is kinda annoying that everything else in the project took 10 minutes to make and this has taken an hour and it still isnt finished -.-

So, are you going to upload it?

laptop97 · 2011-09-05 17:42:31

Wait the script is wrong right now, I have to edit it.

Frogdunker · 2011-09-05 17:47:41

oh, i just saw what u said

laptop97 · 2011-09-05 17:49:48

I don't know how this will work, the script could be 1/1000 off.

okay i uploaded it....its kinda sloppy but that doesn't matter

JJROCKER · 2011-09-05 17:54:33

I saw the project big_smile

Why not just multiply it by 1000, round it, and divide it by a thousand?
