A graph...

Posted by darkseb007 on Sun, 02/05/2006 - 01:05Syndicated Download Counter

I think it would be a good idea to have a graph showing the evolution of the download counter : we could see if firefox spreading is a x->exp(x) or a x->log(x) (I hope not...)

 Just an idea...

  But how frequently should we refresh the evaluation of the parameter of the function?

I will look into it, in 2 weeks time when I get home from Ireland.

Well,Ithink it's probably a x->kx,or x->x^k(1<k<2),x->exp(x) seems quite impossible...

Well you are probably right... an exp has a really quick increase... Is there someone who know how this counter works and who has created it ? We could ask him for a graph !

Hello, I really love your firefox Counter, but as I'm in engiennering french school, I always think on a scientific and mathematic way, so I'm writting this mail to ask you if it would be possible to make a graph of this counter. You know, a f(t) graph where t is the time (linear scale, maybe 1day = 1unit), and f(t) the counter of download. We could see if spreading is a linear function, a exp(t) function, or, worse, log(t).

Thank you for your attention !

I hope they will answer soon !
