# `ratio` is now 0.75.
[/codeblock]
Returns [code]true[/code] if [code]a[/code] and [code]b[/code] are approximately equal to each other.
Here, approximately equal means that [code]a[/code] and [code]b[/code] are within a small internal epsilon of each other, which scales with the magnitude of the numbers.
Infinity values of the same sign are considered equal.
Returns whether [code]x[/code] is an infinity value (either positive infinity or negative infinity).

Returns whether [code]x[/code] is a NaN ("Not a Number" or invalid) value.
Returns [code]true[/code] if [code]x[/code] is zero or almost zero.
This method is faster than using [method is_equal_approx] with one value as zero.

[codeblock]
lerp(0, 4, 0.75) # Returns 3.0
[/codeblock]
Linearly interpolates between two angles (in radians) by a normalized value.
Similar to [method lerp], but interpolates correctly when the angles wrap around [constant @GDScript.TAU].

rotation = lerp_angle(min_angle, max_angle, elapsed)
elapsed += delta
[/codeblock]
Converts from linear energy to decibels (audio). This can be used to implement volume sliders that behave as expected (since volume isn't linear). Example:
[codeblock]
# "Slider" refers to a node that inherits Range such as HSlider or VSlider.
# Its range must be configured to go from 0 to 1.
# Change the bus name if you'd like to change the volume of a specific bus only.
AudioServer.set_bus_volume_db(AudioServer.get_bus_index("Master"), linear2db($Slider.value))

[/codeblock]
[b]Note:[/b] The logarithm of [code]0[/code] returns [code]-inf[/code], while negative values return [code]-nan[/code].

[/codeblock]

print(randi_range(-10, 1000)) # Prints any number from -10 to 1000
[/codeblock]
Randomizes the seed (or the internal state) of the random number generator. Current implementation reseeds using a number based on time.

[b]Note:[/b] If you need object serialization, see [method var2bytes_with_objects].
Encodes a [Variant] value to a byte array. Encoding objects is allowed (and can potentially include code). Deserialization can be done with [method bytes2var_with_objects].
Converts a Variant [code]variable[/code] to a formatted string that can later be parsed using [method str2var].
[codeblock]
a = { "a": 1, "b": 2 }

prints
[codeblock]
{
"a": 1,
"b": 2
}
[/codeblock]
Returns a weak reference to an object, or [code]null[/code] is the argument is invalid.
A weak reference to an object is not enough to keep the object alive: when the only remaining references to a referent are weak references, garbage collection is free to destroy the referent and reuse its memory for something else. However, until the object is actually destroyed the weak reference may return the object even if there are no strong references to it.
Wraps float [code]value[/code] between [code]min[/code] and [code]max[/code].
Usable for creating loop-alike behavior or infinite surfaces.
[codeblock]
# Infinite loop between 5.0 and 9.9

[/codeblock]
[codeblock]
# Infinite rotation (in radians)
angle = wrapf(angle + 0.1, 0.0, TAU)
[/codeblock]
[codeblock]
# Infinite rotation (in radians)
angle = wrapf(angle + 0.1, -PI, PI)
[/codeblock]
[b]Note:[/b] If [code]min[/code] is [code]0[/code], this is equivalent to [method fposmod], so prefer using that instead.
[code]wrapf[/code] is more flexible than using the [method fposmod] approach by giving the user control over the minimum value.
Wraps integer [code]value[/code] between [code]min[/code] and [code]max[/code].
Usable for creating loop-alike behavior or infinite surfaces.
[codeblock]
# Infinite loop between 5 and 9

Methods that return [enum Error] return [constant OK] when no error occurred. Note that many functions don't return an error code but will print error messages to standard output.
Since [constant OK] has value 0, and all other failure codes are positive integers, it can also be used in boolean checks, e.g.:
[codeblock]
var err = method_that_returns_error()
if err != OK:
print("Failure!")
# Or, equivalent:
if err:
print("Still failing!")
[/codeblock]

No hint for the edited property.
Hints that an integer or float property should be within a range specified via the hint string [code]"min,max"[/code] or [code]"min,max,step"[/code]. The hint string can optionally include [code]"or_greater"[/code] and/or [code]"or_lesser"[/code] to allow manual input going respectively above the max or below the min values. Example: [code]"-360,360,1,or_greater,or_lesser"[/code].
Hints that an integer or float property should be within an exponential range specified via the hint string [code]"min,max"[/code] or [code]"min,max,step"[/code]. The hint string can optionally include [code]"or_greater"[/code] and/or [code]"or_lesser"[/code] to allow manual input going respectively above the max or below the min values. Example: [code]"0.01,100,0.01,or_greater"[/code].
Hints that an integer, float or string property is an enumerated value to pick in a list specified via a hint string such as [code]"Hello,Something,Else"[/code].
Hints that a float property should be edited via an exponential easing function. The hint string can include [code]"attenuation"[/code] to flip the curve horizontally and/or [code]"inout"[/code] to also include in/out easing.
Deprecated hint, unused.
Deprecated hint, unused.
Hints that an integer property is a bitmask with named bit flags. For example, to allow toggling bits 0, 1, 2 and 4, the hint could be something like [code]"Bit0,Bit1,Bit2,,Bit4"[/code].
Hints that an integer property is a bitmask using the optionally named 2D render layers.
Hints that an integer property is a bitmask using the optionally named 2D physics layers.
Hints that an integer property is a bitmask using the optionally named 2D navigation layers.
Hints that an integer property is a bitmask using the optionally named 3D render layers.
Hints that an integer property is a bitmask using the optionally named 3D physics layers.
Hints that an integer property is a bitmask using the optionally named 2D navigation layers.
Hints that a string property is a path to a file. Editing it will show a file dialog for picking the path. The hint string can be a set of filters with wildcards like [code]"*.png,*.jpg"[/code].
Hints that a string property is a path to a directory. Editing it will show a file dialog for picking the path.
Hints that a string property is an absolute path to a file outside the project folder. Editing it will show a file dialog for picking the path. The hint string can be a set of filters with wildcards like [code]"*.png,*.jpg"[/code].
Hints that a string property is an absolute path to a directory outside the project folder. Editing it will show a file dialog for picking the path.
Hints that a property is an instance of a [Resource]-derived type, optionally specified via the hint string (e.g. [code]"Texture2D"[/code]). Editing it will show a popup menu of valid resource types to instantiate.
Hints that a string property is text with line breaks. Editing it will show a text input field where line breaks can be typed.
Hints that a string property should have a placeholder text visible on its input field, whenever the property is empty. The hint string is the placeholder text to use.
Hints that a color property should be edited without changing its alpha component, i.e. only R, G and B channels are edited.
Hints that an image is compressed using lossy compression.
Hints that an image is compressed using lossless compression.
Hint that a property represents a particular type. If a property is [constant TYPE_STRING], allows to set a type from the create dialog. If you need to create an [Array] to contain elements of a specific type, the [code]hint_string[/code] must encode nested types using [code]":"[/code] and [code]"/"[/code] for specifying [Resource] types. For instance:
[codeblock]
hint_string = "%s:" % [TYPE_INT] # Array of inteters.
hint_string = "%s:%s:" % [TYPE_ARRAY, TYPE_REAL] # Two-dimensional array of floats.
hint_string = "%s/%s:Resource" % [TYPE_OBJECT, TYPE_OBJECT] # Array of resources.
hint_string = "%s:%s/%s:Resource" % [TYPE_ARRAY, TYPE_OBJECT, TYPE_OBJECT] # Two-dimensional array of resources.
[/codeblock]
[b]Note:[/b] the final colon is required to specify for properly detecting built-in types.
The property is serialized and saved in the scene file (default).
The property is shown in the editor inspector (default).
