Math.pow(a,b)

a raised to the b power

Math.pow(2,4) outputs 16

Math.round(a)

integer closes to a

Math.round(5.4) outputs 5

Math.round(a*10^x)/10^x

the value of a rounded to x decimal points

[14/3 = 14.66666667]
Math.round(14/3) outputs 5
Math.round(14/3*10)/10 outputs 4.7
Math.round(14/3*100)/100 outputs 4.67

Math.abs(a)

absolute value of a

Math.abs(-5) outputs 5

Math.ceil(a)

integer closest to a an not greater than a

Math.ceil(5.2) outputs 6

math.floor(a)

interger closest to a and not greater than a

Math.floor(5.8) outputs 5
