Thank you for all the responses so far! 9th experiment is a small one compared to previous ones, but still worth of mention.
Experiment #9 - Improved Math Facilities Dunaj extends available math facilities with means to specify precision of arithmetic operations and to round numbers. A pluggable mechanism for using random number generators is introduced, and math related API was extended with functions of an angle, exponentiations and logarithms. Instead of using prefixes and suffixes like in Clojure, facilities for unchecked and precise math are in Dunaj specified in separate namespaces. Common arithmetic functions are provided in dunaj.math namespace, with unchecked functions and arithmetic functions with arbitrary precisions defined in dunaj.math.unchecked and dunaj.math.precise respectively. List of available math functions is extended with exponentiation, logarithms functions and several miscellaneous ones. A separate namespace called dunaj.math.angle contains math functions of an angle, with floating point numbers. Precision of these functions is as implemented by host. Both circular and hyperbolic functions are available.
