51 // This module is a bag of related basic math classes and
52 // global functions.
53 //
54 // The following functionality is available:
55 // <ul>
56 // <li> Templated functors that can be used with <src>std::transform</src>
57 // to apply functions like sin, near, sqrt, etc. to iterators on
58 // sequences like Array, Block, std::vector, etc.
59 // <li> Templated functions <linkto group="ConvertScalar.h#Scalar conversion">
60 // ConvertScalar</linkto>
61 // to convert scalars from one type to another.
62 // <li> Class <linkto class=Functional:description>
63 // Functional</linkto>
64 // to map a domain object into a range object.
65 // <li> Functions <linkto group="Math.h#Math interface for casacore>
66 // Math</linkto>
67 // to interface to math.h and other scalar math functions.
68 // <li> Class <linkto class=Random:description>
69 // Random</linkto>
70 // to offer random number generators.
71 // <li> <linkto class="Primes">Prime</linkto> numbers
72 // </ul>
73 //
74 // <note role=tip> You may want to look at the individual header files
75 // to see whether you might not prefer to include only the header
76 // files you really need; it may be more efficient to do so.
