maybe something liek this?


int mini(int a,int b) { return a<b?a:b; }
int maxi(int a,int b) { return a>b?a:b; }
float minf(float a,float b) { return a<b?a:b; }
float maxf(float a,float b) { return a>b?a:b; }
int absi(int x) { return x<0?-x:x; }
float absf(float x) { return x<0?-x:x; }
float signf(float x) { return x>0?1:x<0?-1:0; }
int signi(int x) { return x>0?1:x<0?-1:0; }

//above controversial?

int clampi(int x,int a,int b) { return x<a?a:x>b?b:x; }
float clampf(float x,float a,float b) { return x<a?a:x>b?b:x; }
int betweeni(int x,int a,int b) {  return x>=a && x<=b; }

float lerp(float a,float b,float t) { return a+(b-a)*t; }
float inv_lerp(float a,float b,float x) { return (x-a)/(b-a); }
float remap(float x,float a,float b,float c,float d) { return 
c+(x-a)*(d-c)/(b-a); }
float rad(float x) { return x*PI/180.0f; }
float deg(float x) { return x*180.0f/PI; }

//thise above i dont quite use

float dist2_square(float x1,float y1,float x2,float y2) {   float 
x=x2-x1,y=y2-y1;     return x*x+y*y; }
float dist2(float x1,float y1,float x2,float y2) {    return 
sqrtf(dist2(x1,y1,x2,y2));}
float len2_square(float x,float y) {    return x*x+y*y; }
float len2(float x,float y) {  return sqrtf(x*x+y*y);}
float dot2(float ax,float ay,float bx,float by){   return ax*bx+ay*by;}
float cross2(float ax,float ay,float bx,float by){    return ax*by-ay*bx;}
void  norm2(float *x,float *y) {  float d=sqrtf(*x**x+*y**y);   if(d>0) 
{ *x/=d;  *y/=d; }}
float dist2_to_line(float px,float py,float ax,float ay,float bx,float 
by){    return fabsf(cross2(bx-ax,by-ay,px-ax,py-ay)) 
/sqrtf(dist2_square(ax,ay,bx,by));}

// hare names may be controversial

the fact is imo though people should generallu decide and use one set of 
such names imo

there is also more functions to put here
