C Mathematical Functions
C mathematical operations are a group of functions in the standard library of the C programming language implementing basic mathematical functions. All functions involve the use of floating point numbers in one manner or another. Different C standards provide different albeit backwards-compatible, sets of functions. Most of these functions are also available in the C++ standard library, though in different headers. The C headers are included only as deprecated compatibility feature.

Famous quotes containing the words mathematical and/or functions:
“An accurate charting of the American woman’s progress through history might look more like a corkscrew tilted slightly to one side, its loops inching closer to the line of freedom with the passage of time—but like a mathematical curve approaching infinity, never touching its goal. . . . Each time, the spiral turns her back just short of the finish line.”
—Susan Faludi (20th century)
“If photography is allowed to stand in for art in some of its functions it will soon supplant or corrupt it completely thanks to the natural support it will find in the stupidity of the multitude. It must return to its real task, which is to be the servant of the sciences and the arts, but the very humble servant, like printing and shorthand which have neither created nor supplanted literature.”
—Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
