HackingFormulas.growAmount() method

Calculate the amount of money a grow action will leave a server with. Starting money is server.moneyAvailable. Note that when simulating the effect of grow, what matters is the state of the server and player when the grow *finishes*, not when it is started.

The growth amount depends both linearly *and* exponentially on threads; see grow for more details.

The inverse of this function is formulas.hacking.growThreads, although it rounds up to integer threads.

Signature:

growAmount(server: Server, player: Person, threads: number, cores?: number): number;
