In the msg box: the long seconds mod 1 always returns 0 --seems right. therefore: (1 - (the long seconds mod 1)) is the same as: 1 - 0 So you may as well just say: send in 1 seconds On my computer; put 1 - 0 into x is slightly slower than; put 1 into x which is twice as fast as: put (1 - (the long seconds mod 1)) into x I expected it to be slower and it is, which leaves me foolishly trying to figure out what the benefits are? _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
