|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The math library includes the following components:
|
|
.Bl -column "<complex.h>" "polymorphic (type-generic) versions of functions" -compact -offset indent
|
|
.In math.h Ta basic routines and real-valued functions
|
|
.In complex.h Ta complex number support
|
|
.In tgmath.h Ta polymorphic (type-generic) versions of functions
|
|
.In fenv.h Ta routines to control rounding and exceptions
|
|
.El
|
|
The rest of this manual page describes the functions provided by
|
|
.In math.h .
|
|
Please consult

|
|
for information on the other components.
|
|
.Sh "LIST OF FUNCTIONS"
|
|
Each of the following
|
|
.Vt double
|
|
functions has a
|
|
.Vt float
|
|
counterpart with an
|
|
.Ql f
|
|
appended to the name and a
|
|
.Vt "long double"
|
|
counterpart with an
|
|
.Ql l
|
|
appended.
|
|
As an example, the
|
|
.Vt float
|
|
and
|
|
.Vt "long double"
|
|
counterparts of
|
|
.Ft double
|
|
.Fn acos "double x"
|
|
are
|
|
.Ft float
|
|
.Fn acosf "float x"
|
|
and
|
|
.Ft "long double"
|
|
.Fn acosl "long double x" ,
|
|
respectively.
|
|

The routines
|
|
in this section might not produce a result that is correctly rounded,
|
|
so reproducible results cannot be guaranteed across platforms.
|
|
For most of these functions, however, incorrect rounding occurs
|
|
rarely, and then only in very-close-to-halfway cases.

.Sh HISTORY
|
|
A math library with many of the present functions appeared in
|
|
.At v7 .
|
|
The library was substantially rewritten for
|
|
.Bx 4.3
|
|
to provide
|
|
better accuracy and speed on machines supporting either VAX
|
|
or IEEE 754 floating-point.
|
|
Most of this library was replaced with FDLIBM, developed at Sun
|
|
Microsystems, in
|
|
.Fx 1.1.5 .
|
|
Additional routines, including ones for
|
|
.Vt float
|
|
and
|
|
.Vt long double
|
|
values, were written for or imported into subsequent versions of FreeBSD.
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
Some of the
|
|
.Vt "long double"
|
|
math functions in
|
|
.St -isoC-99
|
|
are not available.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Many of the routines to compute transcendental functions produce
|
|
inaccurate results in other than the default rounding mode.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
On the i386 platform, trigonometric argument reduction is not
|
|
performed accurately for huge arguments, resulting in
|
|
large errors
|
|
for such arguments to
|
|
.Fn cos ,
|
|
.Fn sin ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn tan .
