[−][src]Crate fast_math

Fast, approximate versions of mathematical functions.

This crate includes implementations of "expensive" mathematical functions that are much faster, at the expense of some accuracy. All functions have good guarantees on accuracy to some degree (both relative and absolute).

Installation

Add this to your Cargo.toml

[dependencies]
fast-math = "0.1"

Examples

let x = 10.4781;
let approx = fast_math::log2(x);
let real = x.log2();
// they should be close
assert!((approx - real).abs() < 0.01);

Functions

atan	Compute a fast approximation of the arctangent of `x`.
atan2	Compute a fast approximation of the four quadrant arctangent of `y` and `x`.
atan_raw	Compute a fast approximation of the inverse tangent for `\|x\| < 1`.
exp	Compute a fast approximation to e^x.
exp2_raw	Compute a fast approximation to 2^x for -151 ≤ `x` ≤ 151.
exp2	Compute a fast approximation to 2^x.
exp_raw	Compute a fast approximation to e^x for -104 ≤ `x` ≤ 104.
log2	Compute a fast approximation of the base-2 logarithm of `x`.
log2_raw	Compute a fast approximation of the base-2 logarithm of positive, finite, non-denormal `x`.
