14.1 Introduction

The OSKit's math library provides the traditional UNIX ``math library'' functions as required by the POSIX.1 and X/Open CAE specifications. These functions are required by a number of non-trivial applications, such as a Java or SR runtime system. The library itself is taken directly from the FreeBSD source tree (/usr/src/lib/msun), though it was developed by Sun Microsystems.
