underworld.function.math module

This module provides math functions. All functions take functions (or convertibles) as arguments. These functions effectively wrap to the c++ standard template library equivalent. For example, the ‘exp’ class generates a function with uses std::exp(double).

All functions operate on and return ‘double’ type data (or ‘float’ from python).
