This is the documentation page for Module:Utils

This module provides several mathematical functions which are likely to be used frequently on the Xenharmonic Wiki.

Namely, the functions in this module can be called from other modules by using require('Module:Utils') and calling the _-prefixed functions.

Functions

  • eval_num_arg(input, def_value) checks if input is a number; on error, use def_value. This function is designed to be used by other modules only; it cannot be called with {{#invoke:}}.
  • log(x, b) returns the logarithm base b of x. Parameter b defaults to base 2 (octave) if it is omitted.
  • round(x, prec) returns x rounded to a precision of prec significant figures. Parameter prec defaults to 6 if it is omitted.
  • is_prime(n) returns true if the given integer n is a prime number. This function is designed to be used by other modules only; it cannot be called with {{#invoke:}}.
  • prime_factorization(n) returns the prime factorization of the given integer n using the exponential form (in wikitext).
