TextFile

This view contains an implementation of the proposed standards for
primitive and elementary mathematical functions, as defined by the 
ISO-IEC/JTC1/SC22/WG9 (Ada), to be used on a Rational R1000 architecture.

 o The directory Documents contains the text of both proposed standards
   and rationale for the standards. 

 o The package specifications  Generic_Primitive_Functions and 
   Generic_Elementary_Functions follow the specification given in the
   proposed standards.
   
 o The corresponding bodies are R1000 specific implementations created based
   upon the books:
      - "Software Manual for the Elementary Functions"
         by William J. Cody, Jr. and William Waite
         Prentice-Hall Series in Computational Mathematics, 1980
      - "Scientific Ada",
         by B. Ford, J.Kok, M.W.Rogers, 
         Cambridge University Press, 1986
      - "Computer Approximations" 
         by John F. Hart et. al, 
         Krieger Publishing 1968
   
 o Packages Primitive_Functions and Elementary_Functions are
   the instances recommended by the proposed standard for the predefined 
   type Float.
