Math class?

Importing scriptmath freezes the blob because, a) you include in angelscript not import and b) there is no scriptmath file available unless you made it. These would cause compile errors and your blob would not work. Just use the math functions. You can find a list of them in Manual/interface/Functions.txt. They are contained in the global namespace Maths.

Edit: I assume you might have seen that there was a scriptmath file from the application developers manual on the angelscript website. However that file is for the actual engine code and is used to bind most math.h functions for use in scripts.

 

i.e if you wanted something to use log base 10. You can do this:

float ret = Maths::Log(x)/Maths::Log(10);

This method is pretty fast. Regular TI calculators use this method commonly to calculate arbitrary bases using e.

 

Log isn't that slow. You can safely do log operation a 100-1000 times a frame if you wanted. I think you misunderstand the speed at which computers do math operations. The heaviest weight things for computers are moving/fetching memory and rendering. Of course it has overhead and cpu time, but it's really not that expensive.

Here is a handy dandy chart that shows the time complexity of computing log using different methods: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_complexity_of_mathematical_operations#Elementary_functions

You can use the modulo operator and divide.

for (int digitPlace = 0; num > 0; digitPlace++) {
int currentDigitVal = num%10;
num /= 10;
}

This works assuming you want to iterate through all the digits and num is an int.
