Some software implementation of the functions sine and cosine.

摘要

We present several software implementations of the elementary functions sin and cos designed to fit a large class of machines. Implementation details are provided. We also provide a detailed error analysis that bounds the errors of these implementations, over the full range of input arguments, from 0.721 to 0.912 units in the last place. Tests performed on these codes give results that are consistent with the error bounds. 2 refs. (ERA citation 15:036645)
