The input to smoothstep is not actually a weight, and the decscription
of smoothstep was pretty hard to understand and easy to misinterpret.
Clarified what it means to be approximately equal.
nearest_po2 does not do what the descriptions says it does. For one,
it returns the same power if the input is a power of 2. Second, it
returns 0 if the input is negative or 0, while the smallest possible
integral power of 2 actually is 1 (2^0 = 1). Due to the implementation
and how it is used in a lot of places, it does not seem wise to change
such a core function however, and I decided it is better to alter the
description of the built-in.
Added a few examples/clarifications/edge-cases.
(cherry picked from commit 7f9bfee0ac)
The GDScript `load` mention is moved from the class `ResourceLoader`
description to the `ResourceLoader.load` method description instead,
where it is more likely to be found.
(cherry picked from commit a8404cf56c)
We already removed it from the online docs with #35132.
Currently it can only be "Built-In Types" (Variant types) or "Core"
(everything else), which is of limited use.
We might also want to consider dropping it from `ClassDB` altogether
in Godot 4.0.
* Adds description for `ord()`
* Adds relationship description between `char()` and `ord()`
* Describes the argument of `char()` as Unicode code point instead of ASCII code
* Fixes wrong interval notation in `randi()` description
Added some missing documentation about yield() being able to wait for a function also. I cant believe something like that was missing from the docs, it would have saved me so much time (and others i assume).
This might be especially usefull since godot script doesn't support ** or ^ as operators, so beginners might search for the exponential function, when what they really need is the pow function.
This is exactly what happened to me and since I couldn't find helpfull information in the documentation I had to look it up online, where I found the answer on a helpfull [reddit thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/godot/comments/3mvwz0/how_do_i_do_exponents_in_godot/).
@akien-mga told me how to reference methods here:
godotengine#30909
Also allow lifting the decimal step formatting with a hint range step
of 0. A new `range_step_decimals()` is added for this to avoid breaking
compatibility on the general purpose `step_decimals()` (which still
returns 0 for an input step of 0).
Supersedes #25470.
Partial fix for #18251.
"posmod" is the integer version of "fposmod". We do not need a "mod" because of the % operator.
I changed the default arg names from "x" and "y" to "a" and "b" because they are not coordinates. I also changed pow's arg names to "base" and "exp". Also, I reorganized the code in the VS built-in funcs switch statement.
