Math library
In computer science, a math library (or maths library) is a component of a programming language's standard library containing functions (or subroutines) for the most common mathematical functions, for example trigonometry and exponentiation, etc.
Examples include:-
- the C standard library math functions[1]
- Java maths library[2]
- 'Prelude.Math' in haskell.[3]
In some languages (such as haskell) parts of the standard library (including maths) are imported by default.[4]
More advanced functionality such as linear algebra is usually provided in 3rd party libraries, such as a linear algebra library or vector maths library.
