   31    * The class {@code StrictMath} contains methods for performing basic
   32    * numeric operations such as the elementary exponential, logarithm,
   33    * square root, and trigonometric functions.
   34    *
   35    * <p>To help ensure portability of Java programs, the definitions of
   36    * some of the numeric functions in this package require that they
   37    * produce the same results as certain published algorithms. These
   38    * algorithms are available from the well-known network library
   39    * {@code netlib} as the package "Freely Distributable Math
   40    * Library," <a
   41    * href="ftp://ftp.netlib.org/fdlibm.tar">{@code fdlibm}</a>. These
   42    * algorithms, which are written in the C programming language, are
   43    * then to be understood as executed with all floating-point
   44    * operations following the rules of Java floating-point arithmetic.
   45    *
   46    * <p>The Java math library is defined with respect to
   47    * {@code fdlibm} version 5.3. Where {@code fdlibm} provides
   48    * more than one definition for a function (such as
   49    * {@code acos}), use the "IEEE 754 core function" version
   50    * (residing in a file whose name begins with the letter
   51    * {@code e}).  The methods which require {@code fdlibm}
   52    * semantics are {@code sin}, {@code cos}, {@code tan},
   53    * {@code asin}, {@code acos}, {@code atan},
   54    * {@code exp}, {@code log}, {@code log10},
   55    * {@code cbrt}, {@code atan2}, {@code pow},
   56    * {@code sinh}, {@code cosh}, {@code tanh},
