easing-functions

I have the following piece of code int steps = 10; for (int i = 0; i <= steps; i++) { float t = i / float(steps); console.log( "t " + t ); } That out puts numbers in a linear fashion like this { 0, 0.1, 0.2, ..., 0.9, 1.0 } I would like apply the cubic (in or out) easing equation so the output numbers increase or decrease gradually UPDATE Not sure if my implementation if correct but I am getting curve as expected float b = 0; float c = 1; float d = 1; for (int i = 0; i <= steps; i++) { float t = i / float(steps); t /= d; float e = c * t * t * t + b; console.log( "e " + e ); //console.log( "t "

Can´t apply an easing method to Jquery ScrollTo: $("#scroller").scrollTo(target,1000,{axis:'x',easing:'linear'}); This doesn´t ease anything... Im starting to use jquery now (been using prototype for long) so this is surely my mistake. Do I need an easing plugin to achieve this? What are the easing option for this plugin (if any)? The documentation is not clear about this. Thanks. From jQuery: The only easing implementations in the jQuery library are the default, called swing, and one that progresses at a constant pace, called linear . So easing: 'linear' is not supposed to show anything. Try

The lack of custom easing curves in UIView's block based animation methods leads to Core Animation if more advanced curves are needed. A way of doing this with a Category on CAKeyframeAnimation is discussed in How to create custom easing function with Core Animation? . To keep my code clean and maintainable I would like to go a step further and re-implement UIView 's block based methods and include a block describing the easing curve function. resulting category on UIView would look something like this: + (void)animateWithDuration:(NSTimeInterval)duration easingCurveFunction:(double(^)(double)

What is meant by easing function in the context of animation. It seems that dojo, jquery, silverlight, flex and other UI systems have the notion of easing function. I could not locate a good explanation of easing functions? Can anyone explain the concept of easing functions, or point a good explanation of them, I am interested in the concept not in the specific details of a framework? Is easing strictly used for location or is it general and can be applied to any property of an object? J. Holmes An easing function is usually a function that describes the value of a property given a percentage
