I'm actually not familiar with the symbol ^ - I've looked it up and it seems to be exponent, which I take as \"to the power of\". Yet, when I try it in the console (so based on JavaScript), it seems to act like a plus. So for 8^2 , I'd expect 64, but in the console, the answer is 10.\r\n\r\nAnyway, the point is you've used an equation early on that's already flummoxed me and stopped me continuing, which is ironical given what the book is trying to do.\r\n\r\nNB I don't have a strong programming background, but I did have a fairly strong mathematical education - although that was over 20 years ago and largely forgotten!\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/getify/Functional-Light-JS/issues/comments/255375699","html_url":"https://github.com/getify/Functional-Light-JS/issues/26#issuecomment-255375699","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/getify/Functional-Light-JS/issues/26","id":255375699,"user":{"login":"getify","id":150330,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/150330?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/getify","html_url":"https://github.com/getify","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/getify/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/getify/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/getify/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/getify/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/getify/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/getify/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/getify/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/getify/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/getify/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-10-21T13:24:45Z","updated_at":"2016-10-21T13:24:45Z","body":"@agebhar I understand that fixes the `2x` and `x^2` parts to be something that would work in JS, but the `f(x) = ..` part is still entirely invalid."}}
