Wow!  That's great!  Those are two more "constants" that I'll start using.  They can take various values like -1.346, 8, 9001, .345 right?
Yes.  They just can't be complex.


Another way to save stat vars (probably better than my first example)

{A,B->L1
1-Var Stats


The smaller of A and B is saved in minX and the larger of the two is in maxX.

Also in case its useful, their sum is in Σx, the average is in Med, and the sum of their squares (maybe in case you're using this constant to compare distances) is in Σx2

Yes!  That's awesome!  I can't wait to find a spot to use these. ;D
