The MathHelper type exposes the following members.
| Platforms | Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|
| E | Represents the mathematical constant e(2.71828175). | ||
| Log10E | Represents the log base ten of e(0.4342945). | ||
| Log2E | Represents the log base two of e(1.442695). | ||
| Pi | Represents the value of pi(3.14159274). | ||
| PiOver2 | Represents the value of pi divided by two(1.57079637). | ||
| PiOver4 | Represents the value of pi divided by four(0.7853982). | ||
| Tau | Represents the value of pi times two(6.28318548). This is an alias of TwoPi. | ||
| TwoPi | Represents the value of pi times two(6.28318548). |
| Platforms | Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Barycentric | Returns the Cartesian coordinate for one axis of a point that is defined by a given triangle and two normalized barycentric (areal) coordinates. | ||
| CatmullRom | Performs a Catmull-Rom interpolation using the specified positions. | ||
| Clamp(float, float, float) | Restricts a value to be within a specified range. | ||
| Clamp(int, int, int) | Restricts a value to be within a specified range. | ||
| Distance | Calculates the absolute value of the difference of two values. | ||
| Hermite | Performs a Hermite spline interpolation. | ||
| IsPowerOfTwo | Determines if value is powered by two. | ||
| Lerp | Linearly interpolates between two values. | ||
| LerpPrecise | Linearly interpolates between two values. This method is a less efficient, more precise version of Lerp(float, float, float). See remarks for more info. | ||
| Max(float, float) | Returns the greater of two values. | ||
| Max(int, int) | Returns the greater of two values. | ||
| Min(int, int) | Returns the lesser of two values. | ||
| Min(float, float) | Returns the lesser of two values. | ||
| SmoothStep | Interpolates between two values using a cubic equation. | ||
| ToDegrees | Converts radians to degrees. | ||
| ToRadians | Converts degrees to radians. | ||
| WrapAngle | Reduces a given angle to a value between π and -π. |
