System.Math namespace not recognised

[russellobrien]

I was trying to use the Pow() and Abs() functions but cannot and also I cannot type "using System.Math" without the compiler saying this is not a valid namespace. Do I have ti import this namespace - it seems unusual for such a basic one or do I have a problem with installation?

Many thanks,

Russell

Right-click on the References section of your project workspace and add a reference to the System.Math assembly.

It should work after that.

System.Math is a class, not a namespace, and declares its methods as static, thus the following should be what you need to do:

using System;

....

int x = Math.Abs(1.2);

pneutam is correct. Math is a class with static methods. No need to reference it. I should have checked first!!
