Libraries.Game.NumberUtilities

The NumberUtilities class contains some actions used by the game engine to manipulate the bits of a number for graphical purposes. Most users will never need to interface with this class directly.

This action compares two object hash codes and returns an integer. The result is larger if this hash code is larger than the object passed as a parameter, smaller, or equal. In this case, -1 means smaller, 0 means equal, and 1 means larger. This action was changed in Quorum 7 to return an integer, instead of a CompareResult object, because the previous implementation was causing efficiency issues.

Example Code

Object o
        Object t
        integer result = o:Compare(t) //1 (larger), 0 (equal), or -1 (smaller)

Creates a number with the same bits as the integer parameter, ensuring that the returned number is a valid color code.

Creates a number with the same bits as the integer parameter.

Creates an integer with the same bits as the number parameter.

This action determines if two objects are equal based on their hash code values.

Example Code

use Libraries.Language.Object
        use Libraries.Language.Types.Text
        Object o
        Text t
        boolean result = o:Equals(t)

This action gets the hash code for an object.

Example Code

Object o
        integer hash = o:GetHashCode()
