kernelCos

$NPM version$ $Build Status$ $Coverage Status$

Compute the cosine of a double-precision floating-point number on [-π/4, π/4].

Installation

npm install @stdlib/math-base-special-kernel-cos

Usage

var kernelCos = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-kernel-cos' );

kernelCos( x, y )

Computes the cosine of a double-precision floating-point number on [-π/4, π/4].

var v = kernelCos( 0.0, 0.0 );
// returns ~1.0

v = kernelCos( 3.141592653589793/6.0, 0.0 );
// returns ~0.866

v = kernelCos( 0.785, -1.144e-17 );
// returns ~0.707

v = kernelCos( NaN, 0.0 );
// returns NaN

Notes

For increased accuracy, the number for which the cosine should be evaluated can be supplied as a double-double number (i.e., a non-evaluated sum of two double-precision floating-point numbers x and y).
As components of a double-double number, the two double-precision floating-point numbers x and y must satisfy
where ulp stands for units in the last place.

Examples

var linspace = require( '@stdlib/array-base-linspace' );
var PI = require( '@stdlib/constants-float64-pi' );
var kernelCos = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-kernel-cos' );

var x = linspace( -PI/4.0, PI/4.0, 100 );

var i;
for ( i = 0; i < x.length; i++ ) {
    console.log( 'kernelCos(%d) = %d', x[ i ], kernelCos( x[ i ], 0.0 ) );
}

C APIs

Usage

#include "stdlib/math/base/special/kernel_cos.h"

stdlib_base_kernel_cos( x, y )

Computes the cosine of a double-precision floating-point number on [-π/4, π/4].

var v = stdlib_base_kernel_cos( 0.0, 0.0 );
// returns ~0.0

v = stdlib_base_kernel_cos( 3.141592653589793/6.0, 0.0 );
// returns ~0.866

The function accepts the following arguments:

x: [in] double input value (in radians, assumed to be bounded by ~pi/4 in magnitude).
y: [in] double tail of x.

double stdlib_base_kernel_cos( const double x, const double y );

Notes

For increased accuracy, the number for which the cosine should be evaluated can be supplied as a double-double number (i.e., a non-evaluated sum of two double-precision floating-point numbers x and y).

#include "stdlib/math/base/special/kernel_cos.h"
#include <stdio.h>

    double out;

    for ( i = 0; i < 10; i++ ) {
        out = stdlib_base_kernel_cos( x[ i ], 0.0 );
        printf ( "x[ i ]: %lf, y: %lf, out: %lf\n", x[ i ], 0.0, out );

Notice

This package is part of stdlib, a standard library for JavaScript and Node.js, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computing. The library provides a collection of robust, high performance libraries for mathematics, statistics, streams, utilities, and more.
