Hour 11. Working with Numbers

We have spent the preceding two chapters dealing with text and strings. In this chapter, we'll focus on numbers. You can manipulate numbers in ActionScript in many ways, and you'll need to understand how to use numbers to write complex ActionScript code.

In this hour, you will:

  • Learn about numerical operators and functions

  • Find out about trigonometry functions

  • Convert numbers to strings and strings to numbers

  • Use random numbers

  • Create a simple calculator

  • Put together an orbiting planets animation

  • Make a snowflake animation
