I need to find a mathematical formula for this next problem...
I have a list containing 13 items. The list is dynamic, wich means
that sometimes it could contains 20 items or 35 items o only 4 items.
I want to show the items in groups of 4. Again, this is dynamic.
Sometimes i want to show the items in groups of 11, 2, etc...
So, if i have 34 items and i want to show it in groups of 10, I would
end up having 4 groups (3 groups of 10, and 1 group of 4)... So far so
good. Let's continue. If item 'joe' is the 12th item, then item 'joe'
is in group 2. right? If the item 'banana' is the 8th item, then item
'banana' is in group 1...and so on...
<?php
$itemsPerGroup = 10;
$itemPosition = 12;
$group = ceil($itemPosit ion/$itemsPerGroup) ;
var_dump($group );
?>

I am trying to put the following math formula in php, but I know to little
of math to do it I guess, maybe somebody can help me out.
This is the formula:
x = (-ln(1) - ln(y/100))*100*z
The values for y and z will be submitted via a form.
Any help is greatly apreciated.

Hi all
I was helping my niece with her trigonometry homework last night. Her
calculator's batteries were flat, so I thought I would use Python's
math module to calculate sin, cos, and tan.
I tried the example in the text book first, to ensure that I was
getting the correct result, but it did not agree. Then my wife had the
idea of using...

Javascript has a very small math function list. However there is no
reason that this list can not be extended greatly. Speed is not an

that case you need much more ram than a PC has to store functions
calculated in loops so that you do not have to recalculate every time...

I am trying to determine the age of a person based on two dates, the Date of

I have a function that does this but it is kludgey and is giving me an age
that is pretty close but only because I have figured into the equation
(manually) the approximate number of leap years.
The code reads:

hi,
I am developing intensity of wave in physics.
I am using system.math in c#.
every thing is fine. but the result of Intensity is not well.
my formula is:-

delta=2pi/lambda*trangle;

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it. ...
