Annotation of 43BSDTahoe/cci/libM/Doc, revision 1.1

1.1     ! root        1: The new floating point library consists of 5 files which define 8 functions.
        !             2: The files and functions are:
        !             3: 
        !             4:        atand.c:        atan(arg), atan2(arg1, arg2)
        !             5:        expd.c:         exp(arg)
        !             6:        logd.c:         log(arg), log10(arg)
        !             7:        sind.c:         sin(arg), cos(arg)
        !             8:        sqrtd.c:        sqrt(arg)
        !             9: 
        !            10: These files are archived in a library called 'libM.a'. Therefore, to use
        !            11: any of these functions, the user must specify '-lM' option to 'ld(1)' as
        !            12: in:
        !            13: 
        !            14:        cc c.c -lM
        !            15: 
        !            16: Note that, the standard library has some additional functions that are not
        !            17: available in the new library. Therefore, to compile the programs that use
        !            18: those functions from the standard library, one must specify:
        !            19: 
        !            20:        cc c.c -lM -lm
        !            21: 
        !            22: The order of appearance of '-lM' and '-lm' options is important. If '-lM'
        !            23: is not specified before '-lm' none of the functions in 'libM.a' will be
        !            24: loaded since they are all available in 'libm.a' also.
