@node Math
@chapter Mathematical Functions (@file{math.h})
 
This chapter groups a wide variety of mathematical functions.  The
corresponding definitions and declarations are in @file{math.h}.  
Two definitions from @file{math.h} are of particular interest.  
 
@enumerate
@item
The representation of infinity as a @code{double} is defined as
@code{HUGE_VAL}; this number is returned on overflow by many functions.
 
@item
The structure @code{exception} is used when you write customized error
handlers for the mathematical functions.  You can customize error
handling for most of these functions by defining your own version of
@code{matherr}; see the section on @code{matherr} for details.
@end enumerate
 
@cindex system calls
@cindex support subroutines
@cindex stubs
@cindex OS stubs
Since the error handling code calls @code{fputs}, the mathematical
subroutines require stubs or minimal implementations for the same list
of OS subroutines as @code{fputs}: @code{close}, @code{fstat},
@code{isatty}, @code{lseek}, @code{read}, @code{sbrk}, @code{write}.
@xref{syscalls,,System Calls, libc.info, The Red Hat newlib C Library},
for a discussion and for sample minimal implementations of these support
subroutines.
 
Alternative declarations of the mathematical functions, which exploit
specific machine capabilities to operate faster---but generally have
less error checking and may reflect additional limitations on some
machines---are available when you include @file{fastmath.h} instead of
@file{math.h}.

@section Version of library
 
There are four different versions of the math library routines: IEEE,
POSIX, X/Open, or SVID.  The version may be selected at runtime by
setting the global variable @code{_LIB_VERSION}, defined in
@file{math.h}.  It may be set to one of the following constants defined
in @file{math.h}: @code{_IEEE_}, @code{_POSIX_}, @code{_XOPEN_}, or
@code{_SVID_}.  The @code{_LIB_VERSION} variable is not specific to any
thread, and changing it will affect all threads.
 
The versions of the library differ only in how errors are handled.
 
In IEEE mode, the @code{matherr} function is never called, no warning
messages are printed, and @code{errno} is never set.
 
In POSIX mode, @code{errno} is set correctly, but the @code{matherr}
function is never called and no warning messages are printed.
 
In X/Open mode, @code{errno} is set correctly, and @code{matherr} is
called, but warning message are not printed.
 
In SVID mode, functions which overflow return 3.40282346638528860e+38,
the maximum single-precision floating-point value, rather than infinity.
Also, @code{errno} is set correctly, @code{matherr} is called, and, if
@code{matherr} returns 0, warning messages are printed for some errors.
For example, by default @samp{log(-1.0)} writes this message on standard
error output:
 
@example
log: DOMAIN error
@end example
 
The library is set to X/Open mode by default.
