18/* LOG1P(x)
19 * RETURN THE LOGARITHM OF 1+x
20 * DOUBLE PRECISION (VAX D FORMAT 56 bits, IEEE DOUBLE 53 BITS)
21 * CODED IN C BY K.C. NG, 1/19/85;
22 * REVISED BY K.C. NG on 2/6/85, 3/7/85, 3/24/85, 4/16/85.
23 *
24 * Required system supported functions:
25 * scalb(x,n)
26 * copysign(x,y)
27 * logb(x)
28 * finite(x)
29 *
30 * Required kernel function:
31 * log__L(z)
32 *
33 * Method :
34 * 1. Argument Reduction: find k and f such that
35 * 1+x = 2^k * (1+f),
36 * where sqrt(2)/2 < 1+f < sqrt(2) .
37 *
38 * 2. Let s = f/(2+f) ; based on log(1+f) = log(1+s) - log(1-s)
39 * = 2s + 2/3 s**3 + 2/5 s**5 + .....,
40 * log(1+f) is computed by
41 *
42 * log(1+f) = 2s + s*log__L(s*s)
43 * where
44 * log__L(z) = z*(L1 + z*(L2 + z*(... (L6 + z*L7)...)))
45 *
46 * See log__L() for the values of the coefficients.
47 *
48 * 3. Finally, log(1+x) = k*ln2 + log(1+f).
49 *
50 * Remarks 1. In step 3 n*ln2 will be stored in two floating point numbers
51 * n*ln2hi + n*ln2lo, where ln2hi is chosen such that the last
52 * 20 bits (for VAX D format), or the last 21 bits ( for IEEE
53 * double) is 0. This ensures n*ln2hi is exactly representable.
54 * 2. In step 1, f may not be representable. A correction term c
55 * for f is computed. It follows that the correction term for
56 * f - t (the leading term of log(1+f) in step 2) is c-c*x. We
57 * add this correction term to n*ln2lo to attenuate the error.
58 *
59 *
60 * Special cases:
61 * log1p(x) is NaN with signal if x < -1; log1p(NaN) is NaN with no signal;
62 * log1p(INF) is +INF; log1p(-1) is -INF with signal;
63 * only log1p(0)=0 is exact for finite argument.
64 *
65 * Accuracy:
66 * log1p(x) returns the exact log(1+x) nearly rounded. In a test run
67 * with 1,536,000 random arguments on a VAX, the maximum observed
68 * error was .846 ulps (units in the last place).
69 *
70 * Constants:
71 * The hexadecimal values are the intended ones for the following constants.
72 * The decimal values may be used, provided that the compiler will convert
73 * from decimal to binary accurately enough to produce the hexadecimal values
74 * shown.
