New math functions?
I've looked around in the new code and compiler docs and such and IO have yet to see any mention of new math libraries, or math libraries at all.
Any hints on where the math libraries are and any documentation? |

Re: New math functions?
They're in the /h folder of the new compiler. There's a very nice math.h file, as well as an stdio.h file. Now I don't have to use my Maclauren approximations for trig functions!

Re: New math functions?
They are (straight from math.h):
float fabs (float x); (absolute value) float ldexp (float x, int n); (computes x*2^n) float exp (float f); (e^f) float sqrt (float x); float asin (float x); float acos (float x); float atan2 (float y, float x); float atan (float x); float sin (float x); float cos (float x); float tan (float x); float sinh (float x); float cosh (float x); float tanh (float x); float frexp (float x, int *pexp); (splits into the fractional part of a float, which is returned, and the exponent which is stored in the pointer) float log10 (float x); float log (float x); float pow (float x, float y); float ceil (float x); float floor (float x); float modf (float x, float *ipart); (performs the modulus function on x, returns the result and stores the fraction in the pointer. Look in the manual for more explanation) float fmod (float x, float y); (the remainder for x%y) float mchptoieee (unsigned long v); (converts the microchip version of 32-bit to ieee standard) unsigned long ieeetomchp (float v); (mchptoieee in reverse) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unfortunately, thay all take floating point inputs and return floats. Its not hard to typecast though. And I, myself, am glad to have a math.h library at my disposal rather than using my own functions, even if it is for 32-bit floats. If you've already installed the compiler, the manual should be in c:\mcc18\docs\ (or whatever-your-install-directory-is\docs). It has plenty of documentation available. There are also many functions to access deeper features of the chip that took some tricky coding before. -Tony K |

It is very useful when evaluating certain integrals, but not really used outside of advanced calculus. A good description is here. |
