Talk:Level Costs

It looks like the calculation uses round() for levels above 126, ceil() for other levels, and then level 2 should be 1000 xp, not 1004. I've updated the script below. --Widgeon 00:04, 23 February 2009 (CST)

For what it's worth, here's the python script I used to generate the table:

#!/usr/bin/python                                                                                                                                               

import math
import locale

def total_level_xp(level):
    if (level < 2):
        return 0;

    if (level == 2):
        return 1000;

    if (level <= 126):
        return int(math.ceil( ((level + 5) ** 5 - (6 ** 5)) / 9.))

    return int(round( ((level + 5) ** 5 - (6 ** 5)) / 9.))

def next_level_xp(level):
    return total_level_xp(level) - total_level_xp(level - 1)

locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, "")

for level in range(1,276):
    next_xp = next_level_xp(level)
    total_xp = total_level_xp(level)
    print "| %d || %s || %s" % (level, locale.format("%.*d", (1, next_xp), True), locale.format("%.*d", (1, total_xp), True))
    print "|-"
