However, I do think we need an option. Do we have a wiki page listing the functions in libm we are missing? Having some kind of place to track progress and figure out what exactly is needed is the first step to getting these APIs into shape. Also, are there BSD licensed naive implementations of these functions we can use? Would it be okay to have slow, but accurate versions of these functions as a stopgap? -- Eitan AdlerReceived on Fri Jun 01 2012 - 03:55:48 UTC
