Is there a limit on the number of function (expressions) calls in the same component?

Hi new developer here!

I was trying to get a general “shake” measurement and wrote this:
(abs(gyroRawX())+abs(gyroRawY()))
but it fails when for instance all those one works:
(abs(gyroRawX())+abs(5.5))
(abs(5.5)+abs(gyroRawY()))
(abs(gyroRawX())+gyroRawY())
so my first guess is that there is a limit of 3 expression calls, but I’d like to check.

Thanks!

Eeeeek . Welcome @monyosc.tareas . You Jump in at the deep end . I never got any useful readings from the gyro . I use acceleromterRawX() and Y . Gives 0 to 10 for 0 to 90 degrees .
.
.
Try this .
.
(abs((gyroRawX())+(gyroRawX())))

Thanks Russell!
the problem with abs(gyroX() + gyroY()) is when X and Y components have different sign they will be cancelling one each other. That’s why I wanted to add abs(x) + abs(y).
In any case there’s a workaround squaring and rooting values like
sqrt(gyroRawX()**2+gyroRawY()**2)
Thanks!

One day I might understand what’s going on here…:sunglasses:

Ok I think I posted this in the wrong category, should have posted in “Expression Help” sorry!

Just like in your other post, simply add brackets, then add more brackets. Facer is finnicky and likes brackets.
