`This module is always available. It provides access to the
mathematical functions defined by the C standard.`

Functions

``

acos(...)
  `acos(x)
  Return the arc cosine (measured in radians) of x.`

asin(...)
  `asin(x)
  Return the arc sine (measured in radians) of x.`

atan(...)
  `atan(x)
  Return the arc tangent (measured in radians) of x.`

atan2(...)
  `atan2(y, x)
  Return the arc tangent (measured in radians) of y/x.
  Unlike atan(y/x), the signs of both x and y are considered.`

ceil(...)
  `ceil(x)
  Return the ceiling of x as a float.
  This is the smallest integral value >= x.`

cos(...)
  `cos(x)
  Return the cosine of x (measured in radians).`

cosh(...)
  `cosh(x)
  Return the hyperbolic cosine of x.`

degrees(...)
  `degrees(x) -> converts angle x from radians to degrees`

exp(...)
  `exp(x)
  Return e raised to the power of x.`

fabs(...)
  `fabs(x)
  Return the absolute value of the float x.`

floor(...)
  `floor(x)
  Return the floor of x as a float.
  This is the largest integral value <= x.`

fmod(...)
  `fmod(x,y)
  Return fmod(x, y), according to platform C. x % y may differ.`

frexp(...)
  `frexp(x)
  Return the mantissa and exponent of x, as pair (m, e).
  m is a float and e is an int, such that x = m * 2.**e.
  If x is 0, m and e are both 0. Else 0.5 <= abs(m) < 1.0.`

hypot(...)
  `hypot(x,y)
  Return the Euclidean distance, sqrt(x*x + y*y).`

ldexp(...)
  `ldexp(x, i) -> x * (2**i)`

log(...)
  `log(x[, base]) -> the logarithm of x to the given base.
  If the base not specified, returns the natural logarithm (base e) of x.`

log10(...)
  `log10(x) -> the base 10 logarithm of x.`

modf(...)
  `modf(x)
  Return the fractional and integer parts of x. Both results carry the sign
  of x. The integer part is returned as a real.`

pow(...)
  `pow(x,y)
  Return x**y (x to the power of y).`

radians(...)
  `radians(x) -> converts angle x from degrees to radians`

sin(...)
  `sin(x)
  Return the sine of x (measured in radians).`

sinh(...)
  `sinh(x)
  Return the hyperbolic sine of x.`

sqrt(...)
  `sqrt(x)
  Return the square root of x.`

tan(...)
  `tan(x)
  Return the tangent of x (measured in radians).`

tanh(...)
  `tanh(x)
  Return the hyperbolic tangent of x.`
