NG, 1/20/85; * REVISED BY K.C. NG on 1/23/85, 3/7/85, 4/16/85. * * Required kernel function: * log(x) * * Method : * log(x) * log10(x) = --------- or [1/log(10)]*log(x) * log(10) * * Note: * [log(10)] rounded to 56 bits has error .0895 ulps, * [1/log(10)] rounded to 53 bits has error .198 ulps; * therefore, for better accuracy, in VAX D format, we divide * log(x) by log(10), but in IEEE Double format, we multiply * log(x) by [1/log(10)]. * * Special cases: * log10(x) is NaN with signal if x < 0; * log10(+INF) is +INF with no signal; log10(0) is -INF with signal; * log10(NaN) is that NaN with no signal. * * Accuracy: * log10(X) returns the exact log10(x) nearly rounded. In a test run * with 1,536,000 random arguments on a VAX, the maximum observed * error was 1.74 ulps (units in the last place). * * Constants: * The hexadecimal values are the intended ones for the following constants. * The decimal values may be used, provided that the compiler will convert * from decimal to binary accurately enough to produce the hexadecimal values * shown. */ #include "mathimpl.h" vc(ln10hi, 2.3025850929940456790E0 ,5d8d,4113,a8ac,ddaa, 2, .935D8DDDAAA8AC) ic(ivln10, 4.3429448190325181667E-1, -2, 1.BCB7B1526E50E) #ifdef vccast #define ln10hi vccast(ln10hi) #endif double log10(x) double x; { #if defined(vax)||defined(tahoe) return(log(x)/ln10hi); #else /* defined(vax)||defined(tahoe) */ return(ivln10*log(x)); #endif /* defined(vax)||defined(tahoe) */ }
