Mark Dickinson	48f7a4aabb	Correct documentation for math.pow; ... 0**nan is nan, not 0. (But nan**0 and 1**nan are 1.) Also fix minor typo: 'quite NaN' -> 'quiet NaN'	2008-04-19 21:35:35 +00:00
Christian Heimes	6f34109384	I finally got the time to update and merge Mark's and my trunk-math branch. The patch is collaborated work of Mark Dickinson and me. It was mostly done a few months ago. The patch fixes a lot of loose ends and edge cases related to operations with NaN, INF, very small values and complex math. ... The patch also adds acosh, asinh, atanh, log1p and copysign to all platforms. Finally it fixes differences between platforms like different results or exceptions for edge cases. Have fun :)	2008-04-18 23:13:07 +00:00
Jeffrey Yasskin	ca2b69f765	Move __builtins__.trunc() to math.trunc() per ... http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2008-January/076626.html and issue 1965.	2008-02-01 06:22:46 +00:00
Georg Brandl	9749e15e2f	Remove with_statement future imports from 2.6 docs.	2008-01-05 19:28:16 +00:00
Jeffrey Yasskin	9871d8fe22	Continue rolling back pep-3141 changes that changed behavior from 2.5. This ... round included: * Revert round to its 2.6 behavior (half away from 0). * Because round, floor, and ceil always return float again, it's no longer necessary to have them delegate to __xxx___, so I've ripped that out of their implementations and the Real ABC. This also helps in implementing types that work in both 2.6 and 3.0: you return int from the __xxx__ methods, and let it get enabled by the version upgrade. * Make pow(-1, .5) raise a ValueError again.	2008-01-05 08:47:13 +00:00

Christian Heimes	eebb79cc69	Added copysign(x, y) function to the math module	2008-01-03 22:32:26 +00:00
Christian Heimes	e2ca4245c9	Added math.isinf() and math.isnan()	2008-01-03 20:23:15 +00:00
Jeffrey Yasskin	2f3c16be73	Backport PEP 3141 from the py3k branch to the trunk. This includes r50877 (just ... the complex_pow part), r56649, r56652, r56715, r57296, r57302, r57359, r57361, r57372, r57738, r57739, r58017, r58039, r58040, and r59390, and new documentation. The only significant difference is that round(x) returns a float to preserve backward-compatibility. See http://bugs.python.org/issue1689.	2008-01-03 02:21:52 +00:00
Georg Brandl	8ec7f65613	Move the 2.6 reST doc tree in place.	2007-08-15 14:28:01 +00:00
