This one of my favorite, because it is a example of usless function.
<lsl>default
Every avatar, regardless how tall he is, or how much soup he has got from his mama, weight 19.177782 N. (1.954922 Kg)
Try it ;
default
{
{
  touch(integer n)
    touch(integer n)
  {
    {
  llSay(0, llDetectedName(0) + " your weight is " + (string)(llGetObjectMass( llDetectedKey(0) ) * 9.81) + " N ");
        llSay(0, llDetectedName(0) + " your mass is " + (string)llGetObjectMass( llDetectedKey(0)) + " lindogram.");
  }
    }
}
}
Because 50% of my students don't know difference between mass and weight, I whould like to explain it here again.

Mass [m] is the quantity of materia that a avatar has inside itself, and is expressed in Kg (Kilogramms).
The Weight [G] is a Force, expressed in N (Newtons), and it is m * g, where g is the the gravitational atraction.
On the Earth the g is 9.81 m/s², on the Moon 1.63 m/s², on Venus 8.60 m/s², on Mars 3.70 m/s² and on the Sun 274 m/s².

Summary

Function: float llGetObjectMass( key id );
0.0 Forced Delay
10.0 Energy

Returns a float that is the mass of id

• key id – Avatar or object in the sim

Caveats

  • Returns zero if id is not found in the sim.

Examples

<lsl>default { 

   touch(integer n)
   {
       llSay(0, llDetectedName(0) + " your mass is " + (string)llGetObjectMass( llDetectedKey(0)) + " lindogram.");
   }

}
