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:
“All science requires mathematics. The knowledge of mathematical things is almost innate in us.... This is the easiest of sciences, a fact which is obvious in that no one’s brain rejects it; for laymen and people who are utterly illiterate know how to count and reckon.”
—Roger Bacon (c. 1214–c. 1294)
“The mind is a finer body, and resumes its functions of feeding, digesting, absorbing, excluding, and generating, in a new and ethereal element. Here, in the brain, is all the process of alimentation repeated, in the acquiring, comparing, digesting, and assimilating of experience. Here again is the mystery of generation repeated.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
