ActionScript love formula
ActionScript love formula

I know that it will not be a great programming challenge, but I couldn't resist to implement one of those formulas in ActionScript. It was funny to show the result to some of my coworkers last friday afternoon. One of them even asked me "And what is that intended for?" ... what a lack of romanticism! 
The formula I used :

That’s great.
I think I should make a study of mathematics.
