  33 /**
  34  * The class {@code Math} contains methods for performing basic
  35  * numeric operations such as the elementary exponential, logarithm,
  36  * square root, and trigonometric functions.
  37  *
  38  * <p>Unlike some of the numeric methods of class
  39  * {@code StrictMath}, all implementations of the equivalent
  40  * functions of class {@code Math} are not defined to return the
  41  * bit-for-bit same results.  This relaxation permits
  42  * better-performing implementations where strict reproducibility is
  43  * not required.
  44  *
  45  * <p>By default many of the {@code Math} methods simply call
  46  * the equivalent method in {@code StrictMath} for their
  47  * implementation.  Code generators are encouraged to use
  48  * platform-specific native libraries or microprocessor instructions,
  49  * where available, to provide higher-performance implementations of
  50  * {@code Math} methods.  Such higher-performance
  51  * implementations still must conform to the specification for
  52  * {@code Math}.
  53  *
  54  * <p>The quality of implementation specifications concern two
  55  * properties, accuracy of the returned result and monotonicity of the
  56  * method.  Accuracy of the floating-point {@code Math} methods is
  57  * measured in terms of <i>ulps</i>, units in the last place.  For a
  58  * given floating-point format, an {@linkplain #ulp(double) ulp} of a
  59  * specific real number value is the distance between the two
  60  * floating-point values bracketing that numerical value.  When
  61  * discussing the accuracy of a method as a whole rather than at a
  62  * specific argument, the number of ulps cited is for the worst-case
  63  * error at any argument.  If a method always has an error less than
  64  * 0.5 ulps, the method always returns the floating-point number
  65  * nearest the exact result; such a method is <i>correctly
  66  * rounded</i>.  A correctly rounded method is generally the best a
  67  * floating-point approximation can be; however, it is impractical for
  68  * many floating-point methods to be correctly rounded.  Instead, for
  69  * the {@code Math} class, a larger error bound of 1 or 2 ulps is
  70  * allowed for certain methods.  Informally, with a 1 ulp error bound,
  71  * when the exact result is a representable number, the exact result
  72  * should be returned as the computed result; otherwise, either of the
  73  * two floating-point values which bracket the exact result may be
  74  * returned.  For exact results large in magnitude, one of the
  75  * endpoints of the bracket may be infinite.  Besides accuracy at
  76  * individual arguments, maintaining proper relations between the
  77  * method at different arguments is also important.  Therefore, most
  78  * methods with more than 0.5 ulp errors are required to be
  79  * <i>semi-monotonic</i>: whenever the mathematical function is
  80  * non-decreasing, so is the floating-point approximation, likewise,
  81  * whenever the mathematical function is non-increasing, so is the
  82  * floating-point approximation.  Not all approximations that have 1
  83  * ulp accuracy will automatically meet the monotonicity requirements.
  84  *
  85  * <p>
  86  * The platform uses signed two's complement integer arithmetic with
  87  * int and long primitive types.  The developer should choose
  88  * the primitive type to ensure that arithmetic operations consistently
  89  * produce correct results, which in some cases means the operations
  90  * will not overflow the range of values of the computation.
  91  * The best practice is to choose the primitive type and algorithm to avoid
  92  * overflow. In cases where the size is {@code int} or {@code long} and
  93  * overflow errors need to be detected, the methods {@code addExact},
  94  * {@code subtractExact}, {@code multiplyExact}, and {@code toIntExact}
  95  * throw an {@code ArithmeticException} when the results overflow.
  96  * For other arithmetic operations such as divide, absolute value,
  97  * increment, decrement, and negation overflow occurs only with
  98  * a specific minimum or maximum value and should be checked against
  99  * the minimum or maximum as appropriate.
