New submission from Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka+cpyt...@gmail.com>: C99 provides functions log2(), log10() and exp2(). Is it worth to special case math.log(), math.pow() and built-in pow() for using these functions? log2(x) can be more accurate than log(x)/log(2).
There are math.log2() and math.log10(), but not math.exp2(). ---------- components: Extension Modules messages: 305825 nosy: mark.dickinson, rhettinger, serhiy.storchaka, stutzbach priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Special case log(x, 2), log(x, 10) and pow(2, x) type: enhancement versions: Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue31980> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
