P1788
please find attached a motion on elementay functions. It specifies which
functions are required and which are to be recommended. That selection
as well as the fact that there are 2 different lists shall be subject to
discussion.
The precise definition of the evaluation of the functions depends on the
exception handling strategy (cf motion 8) as well as requirements for
accuracy (see Vienna proposal) which are not yet decided.
But I think we should vote on the functionality first, and then fill in
the details for implementation later.
any comments welcome
Juergen
