Hi,
did you try close stack "xyz" ? Thias works for me, in the IDE at
least, both if called from the mainstack and from the substack. Only the
substack is closed.
Livecode 9.6.7 and Windows 10
Hope this helps

Hi ,

I am not a mathematician, but this kind of equation is called implicit
function, implicit equation or implicit curve. If you search for that combined
with draw or plot, you might find explanations. But it seems to be complicated.
Hope this helps.

put (pX2- pX1)^2 + (pY2- pY1)^2 into Lsquared
put Sqrt(Lsquared) into tL
if tL > tconstL then add 1 to tLongCount ---
put tLongCount into fld "LongCountFld"

Thanks,

I guess using Cartesian coordinates for choosing points on a circle could
produce some bias, though I have no clear idea how.
So, what is your code?

Having had no contact with Bertrand Paradox except reading the Wikipedia
entries in English and German, my impression is that this is not a case of
broken math but a case of an ill-defined problem.
Saying that a chord of a circle is chosen at random seems to imply that all
possible chords are ch
I think the easiest way is to adjust the linear random function so that
it produces higher numbers more frequently than lower numbers. More
precisely, the frequency of 10 must be four times that of 5 (because the
area quadruples if you double the radius). Or else the outer points have

to code with, requiring one line instead of two to process returned values. It can also

I am well aware that I shouldn't expect *everything* in Livecode to be
intuitive, but this one bugs me:
Having a handler like
function DoStuff_1 a, b
return a
end DoStuff_1
When you do "put DoStuff_1 (2,3)" the result is 2.
But with
on DoStuff_2 a, b
put a
end Do
