Hi Fredrik,

Congratulations. That looks fantastic.

I see you now even have elliptic functions!

Can I ask you a question. I haven't been following your blog (but
should have). Perhaps you can point me to a post if you already deal
with this somewhere. However, I am interested to know how you deal
with computation of transcendental functions in general. I presume you
make use of power series expansions for some of them.

Do you ever have the situation where you have to multiply, or
exponentiate power series, etc? If so, how do you deal with the
accuracy issues in that case? My knowledge of such things is woefully
inadequate.

Bill.
