Netscript Singularity Functions
===============================
The Singularity Functions are a special set of Netscript functions. These functions allow you to control
many additional aspects of the game through scripts, such as working for factions/companies, purchasing/installing Augmentations,
and creating programs.
The Singularity Functions are **not** immediately available to the player and must be unlocked later in the game.
**WARNING: This page contains spoilers for the game**.
The Singularity Functions are unlocked in BitNode-4. If you are in BitNode-4, then you will automatically have access to all of these functions.
You can use the Singularity Functions in other BitNodes if and only if you have the Source-File for BitNode-4 (aka Source-File 4). Each level of
Source-File 4 will open up additional Singularity Functions that you can use in other BitNodes. If your Source-File 4 is upgraded all the way to
level 3, then you will be able to access all of the Singularity Functions.
Note that Singularity Functions require a lot of RAM outside of BitNode-4 (their RAM costs are multiplied by 10 if you are not in BitNode-4)
universityCourse
----------------
.. js:function:: universityCourse(universityName, courseName)
:param string universityName:
Name of university. Not case-sensitive. You must be in the correct city for whatever university you specify.

If you are not in BitNode-4, then you must have Level 1 of Source-File 4 in order to use this function.
This function will automatically set you to start taking a course at a university. If you are already in the middle of some
"working" action (such as working at a company, for a faction, or on a program), then running this function will automatically
cancel that action and give you your earnings.
The cost and experience gains for all of these universities and classes are the same as if you were to manually visit and take these classes.

a gym, or creating a program), then running this function will automatically cancel that action and give you your earnings.
This function will return true if the player starts working, and false otherwise.
Note that when you are working for a company, you will not actually receive your earnings
(reputation, money, experience) until you FINISH the action. This can be an issue if, for example,
you only want to work until you get 100,000 company reputation. One small hack to get around this is to
continuously restart the action to receive your earnings::
while (getCompanyRep(COMPANY HERE) < VALUE) {
workForCompany();
sleep(60000);
}
This way, your company reputation will be updated every minute.

commitCrime
-----------
.. js:function:: commitCrime(crime)
:param string crime:
Name of crime to attempt. Not case-sensitive. This argument is fairly lenient in terms of what inputs it accepts.
Here is a list of valid inputs for all of the crimes:
* shoplift
* rob store
* mug
* larceny
* deal drugs
* bond forgery
* traffick arms
* homicide
* grand theft auto
* kidnap
* assassinate
* heist
If you are not in BitNode-4, then you must have Level 3 of Source-File 4 in order to use this function.
This function is used to automatically attempt to commit crimes. If you are already in the middle of some 'working' action
(such as working for a company or training at a gym), then running this function will automatically cancel that action and give you your earnings.
Note that crimes committed using this function will have all of their earnings halved (this applied for both money and experience!)
This function returns the number of seconds it takes to attempt the specified crime (e.g It takes 60 seconds to attempt the 'Rob Store' crime,
so running *commitCrime('rob store')* will return 60).
Warning: I do not recommend using the time returned from this function to try and schedule your crime attempts.
Instead, I would use the isBusy() Singularity function to check whether you have finished attempting a crime.
This is because although the game sets a certain crime to be X amount of seconds, there is no guarantee that your
browser will follow that time limit.
getCrimeChance
--------------
.. js:function:: getCrimeChance(crime)

Name of crime. Not case-sensitive. This argument is fairlyn lenient in terms of what inputs it accepts.
Check the documentation for the *commitCrime()* function for a list of example inputs.
If you are not in BitNode-4, then you must have Level 3 of Source-File 4 in order to use this function.
This function returns your chance of success at commiting the specified crime. The chance is returned as a decimal (i.e. 60% would be returned as 0.6).
getOwnedAugmentations
---------------------
.. js:function:: getOwnedAugmentations(purchased=false)
:param boolean purchase:
Specifies whether the returned array should include Augmentations you have purchased but not yet installed.

Optional callback script. This is a script that will automatically be run after Augmentations are installed (after the reset).
