I must be missing something here, because Math.prototype
is undefined for me. Why is this? I tried to do something like this:
Math.prototype.randomRange = function(from, to){
return Math.floor(Math.random() * (to - from + 1) + from);
}
But instead had to do something like this:
Math.randomRange = function(from, to){
return Math.floor(Math.random() * (to - from + 1) + from);
}
That doesn't feel right, though. Is it just me or should I be doing this another way? I apologize if this is a silly or duplicate question, but I couldn't find anything by searching (exactly two questions turn up when I search SO for "Math.prototype", which is kind of weird).
The Math
functions are like class-level functions in other OO languages. There's no prototype object on the constructor; nobody (I know of) uses the constructor anyway. (What would you do with a Math
instance?)
edit — it's been pointed out in a comment (and it never occurred to me to check I guess) that Math
isn't a function anyway. Type Math()
in your browser console and you'll get an error.
