User:CasualCycloneTracker180897

Hello there! I am CasualCycloneTracker180897. The origin of the numbers in my username come from Hurricane Milton's operational analysis (post-analysis shows 895 mbar pressure) from the NHC. I enjoy tracking tropical systems around the world, as well as some mathematical topics. I like to visit the Wikipedias of other languages, even though I do not wholly understand the content of those wikis.

Sometimes I make mistakes in my edits and/or their summaries, such as calling infoboxes by the name of inboxes (dang it autocorrect), or userboxes by infoboxes. Sometimes I even forget to check the 'minor edit' box!

Userboxes

This user believes that Force Thirteen is not a reliable source and should not be used on Wikipedia, but still watches them because they make good animations.

This user has used the
Userbox Maker.

This user might have an obsession with tracking Atlantic hurricanes.

This user is male.

This user personally believes Hurricane Iota reached Category 5 intensity, but will not edit any appearance of its official post-analysis intensity on Wikipedia.

This user would like to learn more

Overall effects
Areas affected	One volcanic island

Test hurricane was a hurricane that never existed and never will. The analysis isn't real and never will be. It began as a tropical wave off the coast of an undisclosed and undefined location. It formed on January 1st as a minimal tropical storm. It then explosively strengthened within an unusually short period of 6 hours, peaking with maximum 1-minute sustained winds of 200 mph (325 km/h) and a minimum central pressure of 879 mbar/hPa (25.96 inHg). It managed to retain this intensity for 364 days and 12 hours before abruptly dissipating on December 31.

It had affected a previously undiscovered volcanic island that had very recently formed on July 1st, coincidentally midway through the year.

My cyclone scale

This scale was designed in miles per hour. Conversions to other units are rounded. The sustained wind speed measurement is in 1-minute sustained, for easy conversions between the Saffir-Simpson scale and this one.

Season timeline

Did you know

Fun fact: Hurricanes Milton and Rita are the first ever sub-900 mbar Atlantic hurricanes to match estimated pressures, both sharing a pressure of 895 millibars. Then in 2025, Melissa matched the intensity of the 1935 Labor Day hurricane.

Mathematics

I know a little of calculus, a lot of arithmetic, much of algebra, a moderate amount of geometry, etc. I will not be solving equations on request, and I do mathematics often as a recreational activity.

The antiderivative of ${\frac {x}{x}}$ (or simply 1, assuming $x\neq 0$) is equivalent to x plus the constant of integration.

$\int {\frac {x}{x}}dx=x+c$

The antiderivative of the sign of x is equivalent to the absolute value of x plus the constant of integration.

$\int \operatorname {sgn} (x)dx=|x|+c$

The absolute value of x can also be represented as x times the sign of x.

$|x|=x\operatorname {sgn} (x)$

Given the circumference $C$ of a circle, this equation can be used to find the diameter $d$ of said circle.

$d={\frac {C}{\pi }}$

This parametric equation can be used to render a circle in a graphing calculator, given the radius $r$ and origin, separated into two numbers $O_{x}$ and $O_{y}$.

$x=r\sin(t)+O_{x},y=r\cos(t)+O_{y}$, assuming $0\leq t\leq 2\pi$

Chemistry

A dihydrogen monoxide molecule is made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.

${\ce {H_2O}}$

An insulin molecule is uhh... oh dear... 257 carbon atoms, 383 hydrogen atoms, 65 nitrogen atoms, 77 oxygen atoms, and 6 sulfur atoms.

${\ce {C_257H_383N_65O_77S_6}}$

The lithium-7 isotope, as an atom, has 3 protons, 4 neutrons, and 3 electrons.

${\ce {^7_3Li}}$

Sodium chloride, also commonly known as salt, can be expressed most commonly as ${\ce {NaCl}}$, but given that the sodium is present in the form of cations and chlorine is present in the form of anions, ${\ce {Na^+Cl^-}}$ can be used.

Code

Lua

Main article: Lua (programming language)

function getNumberRoot(x: number, root: number)
    return x ^ (1 / root)
end
print(getNumberRoot(8, 3))

This simple program outputs 2, as ${\sqrt[{3}]{8}}=2$ and therefore, $2^{3}=8$.

Roblox (Modified Lua)

Main article: Roblox § Roblox Studio

Given a selected anchored Part, move it upwards at an exact speed given an amount of studs per second.

local part = workspace.Part -- Replace this if you want
local speed = 1 -- This can be changed to any real number
game:GetService("RunService").Heartbeat:Connect(function(delta) -- Parameter delta is the difference in time between the previous frame and current frame, referred to as "delta time" in documentation
    if part:IsA("Part") then
        if part.Anchored == true then
            part.Position += Vector3.new(0, delta * speed, 0)
        end
    end
end)

Given a set of waypoints, move a BasePart along each waypoint in order given a speed.

local part = workspace.Part -- Replace this if you want
local speed = 24 -- This can be changed to any real number
local waypoints = {
    Vector3.new(32, 0, 0);
    Vector3.new(32, 32, 0);
    Vector3.new(32, 32, 32);
} -- This is a set of 3-dimensional coordinates that the BasePart will move to
local tweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
for _, v in pairs(waypoints) do
    local origin = part.Position
    local move = tweenService:Create(part, TweenInfo.new((origin - v).Magnitude / speed, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear), {Position = v})
    move:Play()
    move.Completed:Wait()
end

JavaScript

Main article: JavaScript

I learned JavaScript pretty quickly!

class MoonPhase {
    constructor(name, progress) {
        this.name = name;
        this.progressValue = progress;
    }
}

let phases = [new MoonPhase("New Moon", 0), new MoonPhase("Waxing Crescent", 0.125), new MoonPhase("First Quarter", 0.25), new MoonPhase("Waxing Gibbous", 0.375), new MoonPhase("Full Moon", 0.5), new MoonPhase("Waning Gibbous", 0.625), new MoonPhase("Last Quarter", 0.75), new MoonPhase("Waning Crescent", 0.875)]
console.log(phases[5].progressValue)

The program above lists each of the popularly known moon phases in an array called phases, then prints out in the console the progress value for the sixth phase.

Note: This is the code from this image

const LOCALE = globalThis.navigator.language const div = document.body.appendChild(document.createElement('div')) const list = div.appendChild(document.createElement('ol')) const dayNames = new Map() for (let i = 0; i < 7; ++i) { const d = Temporal.PlainDate.from({ year: Temporal.Now.plainDateISO().year, month: 1, day: i + 1, }) dayNames.set(d.dayOfWeek, d.toLocaleString(LOCALE, { weekday: 'long' })) } for (const num of [...dayNames.keys()].sort((a, b) => a - b)) { list.appendChild(Object.assign( document.createElement('li'), { textContent: dayNames.get(num) }, )) }

Old test code

Please understand that this code is from when I didn't know too much about JavaScript.

var number = 10;
function cubeNumber(x) {
    return x * x * x
}
cubeNumber(number);

The program above returns 1000.

var array = [25, 4, 1, 16, 9];
function addAllItems(x) {
    var result = 0;
    for (let i = 0; i < x.length; i++) {
        result += x[i];
    }
    return result;
}
addAllItems(array);

The program above returns 55, the sum of all squares from $1^{2}$ to $5^{2}$, which can also be written in math as $\sum _{n=1}^{5}n^{2}$.

Java

Main article: Java (programming language)

Although I don't know all about coding Java (I do know that a lot of apps use it), here's what I do know!

enum ProgrammingLanguage {
    Java,
    JavaScript,
    Python,
    Lua
}

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        ProgrammingLanguage lang = ProgrammingLanguage.Python;
        System.out.println(lang);
    }
}

The program above returns "Python".

abstract class Instrument {
    public abstract void play();
}

class Keyboard extends Instrument {
    public void play() {
        System.out.println("Note");
    }
    public void playChord() {
        System.out.println("Chord!");
    }
}
class Strings extends Instrument {
    public void play() {
        System.out.println("Strum");
    }
    public void playChord() {
        System.out.println("Strum!");
    }
}
class Woodwind extends Instrument {
    public void play() {
        System.out.println("Blow");
    }
}

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Keyboard piano = new Keyboard();
        Strings guitar = new Strings();
        Woodwind flute = new Woodwind();
        
        piano.playChord();
        guitar.play();
        flute.play();
    }
}

Python

Main article: Python (programming language)

I learned a lot of Python using an iOS app called Mimo, which is an app (however does have a website) that uses a Duolingo-like system for teaching programming languages.

This code is basic, because this was in early lessons.

course = "Python"
primary = "Lua"

print(course == primary)

This outputs False. The variable primary is "Lua" because that's the programming language I am most familiar with.

Getting further, I learned functions!

def product(number_list):
  count_list = number_list.sort()
  result = count_list[0]
  index = 0
  for number in count_list:
    if index > 0:
      result *= number
    index += 1
  return result

list = [5, 2, 3, 8, 13]
print(product(list))

This outputs $2\times 3\times 5\times 8\times 13$, or 3120. The list is sorted before the total product is calculated. To get the total product of the list, a new variable called result is created, initially defined as the first item in the sorted list. Then, result is multiplied by each item after the first. If you haven't already noticed, I put the 1, 1 Fibonacci sequence here.

Swift

Main article: Swift (programming language)

Although I am new to Swift, I am learning it on the aforementioned app Mimo (See this page § Testing Wikipedia things § Code § Python).

let myConstant = !true
var numeral = 1234 - 123

print(myConstant)
print(numeral)

! followed by a boolean true or false is the negation operator, like not true in many other programming languages. The console first prints false and then 1111, which is $1234-123$.

func concatenateScoreForDisplay(name: String, score: Int) -> String {
    return "\(name): \(score)"
}

print(concatenateScoreForDisplay(name: "Wikipedia", score: 12000))
print(concatenateScoreForDisplay(name: "Placeholder", score: 10400))

This code creates and utilizes a function that concatenates a player name and a score, useful for leaderboards.
