Math Library

Hi,

Is there a math library? It's quite possible I've over-looked it.

If not, is there one already in existance that contains the usual functions that anyone can recommend? I'm looking at coding the Taylor series for a bit of practice at using the ALU.

There are payware modules available, but they are not really what I'm looking for (they cover far more advanced functions than cosine, etc..!!).

Thanks!!

well, there is the FPU
it performs most of the heavy math
you might find Raymonds site interesting
he provides a free FPU tutorial, as well as a library

There are many many math libraries out there, most will cost you a few dollars, some such as Intel's library will run you around $400.00. For freeware libraries there are a few, this one looks interesting...

If you intend to use the ALU, you may also find some ideas in the FIXED POINT MATH section of the link provided above by dedndave.

Hi,

The info on the ALU looks great!  :U

I'll have a look at the other libraries, too. Thanks!!
