Special Functions

Many routines in the Intel® C++ Compiler Classic Math Library are more optimized for Intel® microprocessors than for non-Intel microprocessors.

The mathimf.h header file includes prototypes for Intel® C++ Compiler Classic Math Library functions.

The math library supports the following special functions:

annuity

Description: The annuity function computes the present value factor for an annuity, (1 - (1+x)(-y) ) / x, where x is a rate and y is a period.

errno: ERANGE, for underflow and overflow conditions

Calling interface:
double annuity(double x, double y);
long double annuityl(long double x, long double y);
float annuityf(float x, float y);

cdfnorm

Description: The cdfnorm function returns the cumulative normal distribution function value.

Calling interface:
double cdfnorm(double x);
float cdfnormf(float x);

cdfnorminv

Description: The cdfnorminv function returns the inverse cumulative normal distribution function value.

errno:
EDOM, for finite or infinite (x > 1) || (x < 0)
ERANGE, for x = 0 or x = 1

Calling interface:
double cdfnorminv(double x);
float cdfnorminvf (float x);

compound

Description: The compound function computes the compound interest factor, (1+x)y, where x is a rate and y is a period.

errno: ERANGE, for underflow and overflow conditions

Calling interface:
double compound(double x, double y);
long double compoundl(long double x, long double y);
float compoundf(float x, float y);
