/**
* The class {@code Math} contains methods for performing basic
* numeric operations such as the elementary exponential, logarithm,
* square root, and trigonometric functions.
*
* <p>Unlike some of the numeric methods of class
* {@code StrictMath}, all implementations of the equivalent
* functions of class {@code Math} are not defined to return the
* bit-for-bit same results. This relaxation permits
* better-performing implementations where strict reproducibility is
* not required.
*
* <p>By default many of the {@code Math} methods simply call
* the equivalent method in {@code StrictMath} for their
* implementation. Code generators are encouraged to use
* platform-specific native libraries or microprocessor instructions,
* where available, to provide higher-performance implementations of
* {@code Math} methods. Such higher-performance
* implementations still must conform to the specification for
* {@code Math}.
*
* <p>The quality of implementation specifications concern two
* properties, accuracy of the returned result and monotonicity of the
* method. Accuracy of the floating-point {@code Math} methods
* is measured in terms of <i>ulps</i>, units in the last place. For
* a given floating-point format, an ulp of a specific real number
* value is the distance between the two floating-point values
* bracketing that numerical value. When discussing the accuracy of a
* method as a whole rather than at a specific argument, the number of
* ulps cited is for the worst-case error at any argument. If a
* method always has an error less than 0.5 ulps, the method always
* returns the floating-point number nearest the exact result; such a
* method is <i>correctly rounded</i>. A correctly rounded method is
* generally the best a floating-point approximation can be; however,
* it is impractical for many floating-point methods to be correctly
* rounded. Instead, for the {@code Math} class, a larger error
* bound of 1 or 2 ulps is allowed for certain methods. Informally,
* with a 1 ulp error bound, when the exact result is a representable
* number, the exact result should be returned as the computed result;
* otherwise, either of the two floating-point values which bracket
* the exact result may be returned. For exact results large in
* magnitude, one of the endpoints of the bracket may be infinite.
* Besides accuracy at individual arguments, maintaining proper
* relations between the method at different arguments is also
* important. Therefore, most methods with more than 0.5 ulp errors
* are required to be <i>semi-monotonic</i>: whenever the mathematical
* function is non-decreasing, so is the floating-point approximation,
* likewise, whenever the mathematical function is non-increasing, so
* is the floating-point approximation. Not all approximations that
* have 1 ulp accuracy will automatically meet the monotonicity
* requirements.
