Day 003: SGN
#1
A very simple and easy command to understand for day number 3 -- SGN.

What is SGN:  It's simply the command to determine what sign a number has before it.  Is it positive, negative, or 0?

When would we ever use such a command:  Anytime we only need to know whether a value is less than, equal to, or greater than 0.

Example to showcase the command:

Code: (Select All)
For i = -10 To 10
    Print i, Sgn(i)
Next


Honestly, I don't know what more to say about this command as what it does for us is so simple to understand.  Negative numbers return a value of -1.  Positive numbers return a value of +1, and zero, of course, returns a value of 0 as it has no sign.
