It is meant to be used standalone in applications and - programming language implementations. - OpenLibm also includes the AMOS library from Netlib, which is a - portable package for Bessel Functions of a Complex Argument and - Nonnegative Order. AMOS contains subroutines for computing Bessel - functions and Airy functions. - The OpenLIBM code derives from the FreeBSD msun implementation, which - in turn derives from FDLIBM 5.3. As a result, it has a number of fixes - and updates that have accumulated over the years in msun, and also - optimized assembly versions of many functions. +OpenLibm is an effort to have a high quality, portable, standalone C +mathematical library (libm). It can be used standalone in applications +and programming language implementations. +The project was born out of a need to have a good libm for the Julia +programming langage that worked consistently across compilers and +operating systems, and in 32-bit and 64-bit environments. </longdescription> </pkgmetadata>
