Sequential Tip Calculator

[BoltEyeAm]

Hello, I was brushing up on my javascript and html and decided to make a basic calculator to calculate Sequential Tips (aka 1+2+3+4+5...). Maybe some people here might find it use full.

There are two parts:
Goal Calculator: You enter in a value of tokens you want and it will tell you 1 though whatever is needed for that amount.
Total Calculator: You enter in a start and an end value and it will tell you what the total is.

Nerdy Math Stuff:
Total Sum of values from A to B where B > A
(B-A+1)/2*(A+B) = Total

Goal Calculation (Returns decimals for numbers not in the sequence)
( sqrt(X*8)+1)-1) /2 = End Value

Very cool! Only thing is, it's "tokens" and "dollars" but I bookmarked for future use!

ha ha Apparently math is more of my area. Thanks.


PS. I added a second link to the title post and then found out how to edit the existing link. I can't edit the title post anymore to remove it now

Just noticed I missed parenthesis in the original post too.
(sqrt((X*8)+1)-1) /2

Yeah I was reading the thread about converting Tokens to dollars and remembered my idea to do something like this and thought that the efforts might not go unappreciated. I had to fiddle around with a pen and paper a while to figure out how how to do the goal portion of it so I was brushing up on my math as well (quadratic formula and gauss' formula)
