timed-number

A little wrapper to help deal with numbers that change over time.

Example usage:

var TimedNumber = require('timed-number');

var hp = {
	interval: 1,
	max: 10,
	min: 0,
	rate: 1 / 1, // goes up by one every second
	val: 3,
	interval: 1 // how often the timed number will tick in seconds.
};

var tnHP = new TimedNumber(hp);

function logHP() {
	console.log(tnHP.get());
}

setInterval(logHP, 1000);

By default, the time source operates in seconds. You can change this behavior by overriding the TimedNumber's now method.

###Methods: ####get() Returns the value of the TimedNumber at the time returned by now.

####inc( value ) A shortcut to add value to the TimedNumber, follows the same rules as set.

####now() Returns the current time in seconds. If you want more or less granularity in your TimedNumber, you can override this function.

####set( value ) Sets the TimedNumber to the value provided. If the value would be outside of the bounds set by max and min, the max or min is set instead.

####nextTick() Returns in unix time when the next tick will triggered

####lastTick() Returns in unix time when the last tick got triggered

####finalTick() Returns in unix time when the final tick will triggered, meaning when the value get to its max/min

###Properties: ####last The last time this number was updated. Defaults to 0.

####max The maximum value this number can be. Defaults to Infinity.

####min The minimum value this number can be. Defaults to -Infinity.

####rate The amount to change the value per tick. Defaults to 0.

####interval The amount of time between ticks, in seconds. Defaults to 1.

####val The value of the number at the time of the last update.
