23 __expm1(__''x''__)__ returns a value equivalent to
24 `exp (''x'') - 1'. It is computed in a way that is
25 accurate even if the value of ''x'' is near zero--a case
26 where `exp (''x'') - 1' would be inaccurate due to
27 subtraction of two numbers that are nearly
28 equal.

31 __log1p(__''x''__)__ returns a value equivalent to
32 `log (1 + ''x'')'. It is computed in a way that is
33 accurate even if the value of ''x'' is near
34 zero.
