I actually ripped this equation out of Wolfram Alpha.

if you just put the -1* to the end of the code it works,

Thank you, I'll try that out later. I guess it's my lack of programming knowledge but I've just never encountered things like this before working in Flowstone. It's a bit frustrating. I expect things to function according to the logic applied rather than having to work around idiosyncrasies hidden deeper in the code. But it's great when I can post something on the forums here and have you guys pull some kind of explanation seemingly out of nowhere and help me solve the problem, so I really appreciate it.
