Make a sum in thyme
for(n, (i)=>{ . . . })
How can I make a sum with the for-function?
for examlpe this simple sum
I'm asking you because for example if I type "for(10, (i)=>{i})" it just shows the 10th member:
0 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 => it just shows the 10th member (the 9) as a result but not the whole sum.
So again... How can I make a sum with the for-function?
Thanks

I just found out how it works. If anyone needs it, here's the thyme code:
For example:
scene.my.sum(6) = 15 (because of 0 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5)
I will extend this idea to make a general sum function so you can add everything you want.

- Code: Select all
scene.my.sum = (n) =>
{
value := 0;
for(n, (i)=>{value = value + i});
value
}
For example:
scene.my.sum(6) = 15 (because of 0 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5)
I will extend this idea to make a general sum function so you can add everything you want.

Re: Make a sum in thyme
To add the values in an array, use this (based on your code just now):
To add consecutive numbers from 0, I suggest you use this:
- Code: Select all
scene.my.sum = (length, array) =>
{
value := 0
for(length, (i)=>{value = value + array(i)})
value
}
To add consecutive numbers from 0, I suggest you use this:
- Code: Select all
scene.my.sum = (n) => {(n)*(n-1)/2.0}

Re: Make a sum in thyme
thanks for your reply
i've got one question: what is the bracket of array[i] for? i only know array(i)

i know this formula but i just wanted to give an example so i don't want to only calculate 1+2+3+4+...+n
