Question How to calculate a price

[72juju]

Hello i want a in-bot convertor by example if I type: 10.11 it will answer 10 REFS and 0 REC and 1 SCRAP.

 

How can I do this please reply me ;(..

This function should do the trick quite nicely.

 

As with any currency that has decimal places, floating-point imprecision can be an issue so it's best to convert everything to the lowest denomination.

function decimalToMetal(dec) {
	var output = {};
	
	var scrap = Math.round(dec * 9); // Convert it to the lowest denomination (scrap) because floats suck
	
	output.refined = Math.floor(scrap / 9);
	scrap -= output.refined * 9;
	
	output.reclaimed = Math.floor(scrap / 3);
	scrap -= output.reclaimed * 3;
	
	output.scrap = scrap;
	return output;
}

Returns an object with properties refined, reclaimed, and scrap.
