And the Math object too... :)
gMath = newObject("Math")
-- use the math object's floor method
gMath.floor(3.6)
-- 3.0000
-- use the math object's arc cosine method
put gMath.aCos(-1)
-- 3.1416
And so on... Basically any Flash object that supports the 'new' creator method, or the
Math, Camera and Microphone objects (those three are implicitly global and present, no
need to create them) can be created and referenced via Lingo. For other objects that
are created inside a SWF itself you can grab references using the modified
getVariable() command:
gFoo = spriteRef.getVariable("gVarName",false)
The false tells it to get a proper reference instead of a string representation, thus
you can make Lingo references to objects spawned within your SWF. Sweeeeet.
