Hello all,

after I spent two days trying to find something like "Math.sign()" or
similar in core JavaScript, I decided that quickly writing it myself
would probably be smarter (in terms of time management at least ;-)

Now, this is really pretty straightforward:

> Number.prototype.sign = function() {
>       if(this<0){return -1}
>       else if(this>0){return 1}
>       else {return 0};
> };

But I somehow still can't believe that this is neither in JS nor in
Prototype implemented...

Now, did I just miss sth., or is it so rarely needed that nobody ever
missed it - or do you think it should be added to Prototype?

/sascha

PS: Oddly, the "Math" class doesn't seem to like 'prototyping'. -
well, "Number" is the better choice anyway...
