The most important thing in script when doing math.

[NateLiquidGravity]

Put the following code at the very top of your scripts or division will not work as most humans expect.

from __future__ import division

See https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0238/ for more info.

Maybe this should be stickied?

Just put: "import math" at the top of your script.
to use al kinds of math functions, e.g., math.cos(x)

https://docs.python.org/3/library/math.html

(it would be helpfull if the use numpy could be employed in the future)

Some notes on that:
import math does have many useful math functions.
However it doesn't import the human expected division method I described.
Also currently Alibre Script is based on python 2.7 not 3 so the link to use would be:
https://docs.python.org/2.7/library/math.html
