Just a Few Simple Functions

Just a few simple but useful functions I had laying around.

Given the number of minutes of audio a CD can hold, returns the corresponding data capacity in MB.function cd_capacity(minutes) {
return minutes * 8.7890625;
}The Fibonacci numbers using the formula rather than the recursive definition for a big O of 1. [FYI] The limit as n approaches infinity of fibonacci(n+1) / fibonacci(n) yields what is known as the golden ratio.function fibonacci(n) {
return Math.round((Math.pow((1 + Math.sqrt(5)) / 2, n) - Math.pow(-2 / (1 + Math.sqrt(5)), n)) / Math.sqrt(5));
}And finally, the little trick everyone knows for giving random numbers a lower bound and upper bound now just compacted into its own little tidy function./*
* rand() 0 <= n < 1
* rand(10) 0 <= n < 10
* rand(4,10) 4 <= n < 10
*/
function rand()
{
var lower = 0;
var upper = 1;

if (arguments.length == 1)
upper = arguments[0];
else if (arguments.length == 2) {
lower = arguments[0];
upper = arguments[1];
}

return Math.random() * (upper - lower) + lower;
}

Thanks Jeff...that's Very good
