.SH NAME
math.h \- mathematical declarations
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
\fB#include <math.h>\fP
.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
Some of the functionality described on this reference page extends
the ISO\ C standard. Applications shall define
the appropriate feature test macro (see the System Interfaces volume
of IEEE\ Std\ 1003.1-2001, Section 2.2, The Compilation Environment)
to enable the visibility of these symbols in this
header. 
.LP
The \fI<math.h>\fP header shall include definitions for at least the
following types:
.TP 7
\fBfloat_t\fP
A real-floating type at least as wide as \fBfloat\fP.
.TP 7
\fBdouble_t\fP
A real-floating type at least as wide as \fBdouble\fP, and at least
as wide as \fBfloat_t\fP.
.sp
.LP
If FLT_EVAL_METHOD equals 0, \fBfloat_t\fP and \fBdouble_t\fP shall
be \fBfloat\fP and \fBdouble\fP, respectively; if
FLT_EVAL_METHOD equals 1, they shall both be \fBdouble\fP; if FLT_EVAL_METHOD
equals 2, they shall both be \fBlong double\fP; for
other values of FLT_EVAL_METHOD, they are otherwise implementation-defined.
.LP
The \fI<math.h>\fP header shall define the following macros, where
real-floating indicates that the argument shall be an
expression of real-floating type:
.sp
.RS
.nf

\fBint fpclassify(real-floating x);
int isfinite(real-floating x);
int isinf(real-floating x);
int isnan(real-floating x);
int isnormal(real-floating x);
int signbit(real-floating x);
int isgreater(real-floating x, real-floating y);
int isgreaterequal(real-floating x, real-floating y);
int isless(real-floating x, real-floating y);
int islessequal(real-floating x, real-floating y);
int islessgreater(real-floating x, real-floating y);
int isunordered(real-floating x, real-floating y);
\fP
.fi
.RE
.LP
The \fI<math.h>\fP header shall provide for the following constants.
The values are of type \fBdouble\fP and are
accurate within the precision of the \fBdouble\fP type.
.TP 7
M_E
Value of \fIe\fP
.TP 7
M_LOG2E
Value of log_2\fIe\fP
.TP 7
M_LOG10E
Value of log_10\fIe\fP

M_LN2
Value of log_e2
.TP 7
M_LN10
Value of log_e10
.TP 7
M_PI
Value of pi
.TP 7
M_PI_2
Value of pi/2
.TP 7
M_PI_4
Value of pi/4
.TP 7
M_1_PI
Value of 1/pi
.TP 7
M_2_PI
Value of 2/pi
.TP 7
M_2_SQRTPI
Value of 2/ sqrt pi
.TP 7
M_SQRT2
Value of sqrt 2
.TP 7
M_SQRT1_2
Value of 1/sqrt 2 
.sp
.LP
The header shall define the following symbolic constants:
.TP 7
MAXFLOAT
Value of maximum non-infinite single-precision floating-point number.
.TP 7
HUGE_VAL
A positive \fBdouble\fP expression, not necessarily representable
as a \fBfloat\fP. Used as an error value returned by the
mathematics library. HUGE_VAL evaluates to +infinity on systems supporting
IEEE\ Std\ 754-1985.
.TP 7
HUGE_VALF
A positive \fBfloat\fP constant expression. Used as an error value
returned by the mathematics library. HUGE_VALF evaluates to
+infinity on systems supporting IEEE\ Std\ 754-1985.
.TP 7
HUGE_VALL
A positive \fBlong double\fP constant expression. Used as an error
value returned by the mathematics library. HUGE_VALL
evaluates to +infinity on systems supporting IEEE\ Std\ 754-1985.
.TP 7
INFINITY
A constant expression of type \fBfloat\fP representing positive or
unsigned infinity, if available; else a positive constant
of type \fBfloat\fP that overflows at translation time.
.TP 7
NAN
A constant expression of type \fBfloat\fP representing a quiet NaN.
This symbolic constant is only defined if the
implementation supports quiet NaNs for the \fBfloat\fP type.
.sp
.LP
The following macros shall be defined for number classification. They
represent the mutually-exclusive kinds of floating-point
values. They expand to integer constant expressions with distinct
values. Additional implementation-defined floating-point
classifications, with macro definitions beginning with FP_ and an
uppercase letter, may also be specified by the
implementation.
.sp
.RS
.nf

FP_INFINITE
FP_NAN
FP_NORMAL
FP_SUBNORMAL
FP_ZERO
.fi
.RE
.LP
The following optional macros indicate whether the \fIfma\fP() family
of functions are fast
compared with direct code:
.sp
.RS
.nf

FP_FAST_FMA
FP_FAST_FMAF
FP_FAST_FMAL
.fi
.RE
.LP
The FP_FAST_FMA macro shall be defined to indicate that the \fIfma\fP()
function generally
executes about as fast as, or faster than, a multiply and an add of
\fBdouble\fP operands. The other macros have the equivalent
meaning for the \fBfloat\fP and \fBlong double\fP versions.
.LP
The following macros shall expand to integer constant expressions
whose values are returned by \fIilogb\fP( \fIx\fP) if
\fIx\fP is zero or NaN, respectively. The value of FP_ILOGB0 shall
be either {INT_MIN} or - {INT_MAX}. The value of FP_ILOGBNAN
shall be either {INT_MAX} or {INT_MIN}.
.sp
.RS
.nf

FP_ILOGB0
FP_ILOGBNAN
.fi
.RE
.LP
The following macros shall expand to the integer constants 1 and 2,
respectively;
.sp
.RS
.nf

MATH_ERRNO
MATH_ERREXCEPT
.fi
.RE
.LP
The following macro shall expand to an expression that has type \fBint\fP
and the value MATH_ERRNO, MATH_ERREXCEPT, or the
bitwise-inclusive OR of both:
.sp
.RS
.nf

math_errhandling
.fi
.RE
.LP
The value of math_errhandling is constant for the duration of the
program. It is unspecified whether math_errhandling is a macro
or an identifier with external linkage. If a macro definition is suppressed
or a program defines an identifier with the name
math_errhandling, the behavior is undefined. If the expression (math_errhandling
& MATH_ERREXCEPT) can be non-zero, the
implementation shall define the macros FE_DIVBYZERO, FE_INVALID, and
FE_OVERFLOW in \fI<fenv.h>\fP.
.LP
The following shall be declared as functions and may also be defined
as macros. Function prototypes shall be provided.

The behavior of each of the functions defined in \fI<math.h>\fP is
specified in the System Interfaces volume of
IEEE\ Std\ 1003.1-2001 for all representable values of its input arguments,
except where stated otherwise. Each function
shall execute as if it were a single operation without generating
any externally visible exceptional conditions.
.LP
\fIThe following sections are informative.\fP
.SH APPLICATION USAGE
.LP
The FP_CONTRACT pragma can be used to allow (if the state is on) or
disallow (if the state is off) the implementation to
contract expressions. Each pragma can occur either outside external
declarations or preceding all explicit declarations and
statements inside a compound statement. When outside external declarations,
the pragma takes effect from its occurrence until
another FP_CONTRACT pragma is encountered, or until the end of the
translation unit. When inside a compound statement, the pragma
takes effect from its occurrence until another FP_CONTRACT pragma
is encountered (including within a nested compound statement), or
until the end of the compound statement; at the end of a compound
statement the state for the pragma is restored to its condition
just before the compound statement. If this pragma is used in any
other context, the behavior is undefined. The default state (on
or off) for the pragma is implementation-defined.
.SH RATIONALE
.LP
Before the ISO/IEC\ 9899:1999 standard, the math library was defined
only for the floating type \fBdouble\fP. All the names
formed by appending \fB'f'\fP or \fB'l'\fP to a name in \fI<math.h>\fP
were reserved to allow for the definition of
\fBfloat\fP and \fBlong double\fP libraries; and the ISO/IEC\ 9899:1999
standard provides for all three versions of math
functions.
.LP
The functions \fIecvt\fP(), \fIfcvt\fP(), and \fIgcvt\fP() have been
dropped from the ISO\ C standard since their capability is available
through \fIsprintf\fP(). These are provided on XSI-conformant systems
supporting the
Legacy Option Group.
.SH FUTURE DIRECTIONS

None.
