-DOCUMENTATION OF POORMANLOG (v0.04, 2019/02/17)
-===========================
+POORMANLOG (v0.05, 2019/04/22)
+==============================
-(see License at bottom of this file)
+poormanlog.tex provides (expandable) macros \PMLogZ and \PMPowTen
+for computing base 10 logarithms and powers of 10 with a bit less
+than 9 digits of precision.
-The poormanlog.tex file has no dependencies. It provides (expandable)
-macros for base 10 logarithms and powers of 10 with a bit less than 9
-digits of precision (\PMLogZ and \PMPowTen), but its main use will be
-in conjunction with xintexpr.sty, as it provides to the latter
-functions log10() and pow10() and does on-demand modification of the
-power operators ** or ^ to compute according to pow10(y*log10(x)).
+It can be used with TeX (\input poormanlog) and has a LaTeX interface
+(\usepackage{poormanlog}).
-This usage will become obsolete when xintexpr will natively implement
-in arbitrary precision the log10() and pow10() functions.
+Regarding TeX, it requires the e-TeX \numexpr primitive, thus etex
+or pdftex or other binaries with the e-TeX extensions are required.
-The file can be used with Plain TeX (\input poormanlog) or as a
-regular LaTeX package.
+Changes
+-------
-Example (with Plain TeX)
-------------------------
-
- \input xintexpr.sty
- \input poormanlog.tex
-
- \xinteval{log10(3.14159265), pow10(2.71828183)}
-
- \poormanloghack{**}
-
- \xinteval{3.14159265**2.71828183}
-
- \poormanloghack{^}
-
- \xinteval{3.14159265^2.71828183}

-User interface
---------------
-
-\PMLogZ{#1} expands in two steps.
-
-input: #1 is a mantissa ddddddddd (it may be an f-expandable macro)
- with exactly 9 digits (the first one must not be zero)
-output: 9 digits xxxxxxxxx such that log10(d.dddddddd) is about 0.xxxxxxxxx
-
-It seems from testing that absolute error is not much more than 1 unit in
-the last place, and result differs from rounded mathematical value by at
-most 1 unit in the 9th digit. (attention not rigorously proven).
-
-\PMPowTen{#1} expands in two steps.
-
-input: #1 is (or expands to) exactly 9 digits ddddddddd representing
- 0.ddddddddd
-output: 9 digits xxxxxxxxx, first one not zero,
- such that 10^0.ddddddddd is about x.xxxxxxxx
-
-It seems from testing that absolute error is less than 2 units in
-the last place, and result differs from rounded mathematical value by at
-most 2 units in the 9th digit. (attention not rigorously proven).
-
-\PoorManLogBaseTen{#1}
-
- in presence of xintfrac this will accept input as recognized by xintfrac
- and produce the logarithm in base 10 with an error (believed to be at
- most) about 1 unit in the 9th (i.e. last) fractional digit.
-
- xintfrac may be loaded before or after.
-
-\PoorManPowerOfTen{#1}
-
- in presence of package xintfrac this will accept input as recognized by
- xintfrac and produce the 10^#1 with 9 digits of float precision, with an
- error (believed to be) at most 2 units in the last place. Of course for
- this the input must be precise enough to have 9 fractional digits of
- **fixed point** precision.
+- v0.04 (2019/02/17): initial release. The package has no
+ dependencies and alongside two macros \PMLogZ and \PMPowTen
+ also provides some specific additions to xint.
- xintfrac may be loaded before or after.
+- v0.05 (2019/04/22): the additions/patches to xint originally
+ provided by poormanlog.tex got moved into xint 1.3f itself.
-\PoorManPower{#1}{#2}
+ Thus, poormanlog now reduces to the sole two macros
+ \PMLogZ and \PMPowTen. It can be imported by other macro
+ files with no danger of conflicting with future releases of
+ xint in case of concurrent usage.
- in presence of package xintfrac computes #1 to the power #2
- xintfrac may be loaded before or after.
+Files
+-----
-log10()
+poormanlog.tex
+poormanlog.sty
+README
- the log10() function is made available, if xintexpr.sty is loaded, for
- usage within \xinteval and \xintfloateval. If a log10() function is
- already defined in xintexpr it will not be overwritten
- xintexpr may be loaded before or after.
+\PMLogZ{#1} computes base-10 logarithms:
+----------------------------------------
-pow10()
+expansion: the argument is submitted to f-expansion and the macro
+ itself expands fully in two steps.
- pow10() function is made available, if xintexpr.sty is loaded, for usage
- within \xinteval and \xintfloateval. If a pow10() function is already
- defined in xintexpr it will not be overwritten
+input: #1 must be (or f-expands to) a mantissa ddddddddd with exactly
+ 9 digits, standing for D = d.dddddddd, 1 <= D < 10
- xintexpr may be loaded before or after.
+output: 9 digits xxxxxxxxx standing for X = 0.xxxxxxxxx such that
+ log10(D) is about X
-modification of ** or ^ operators in \xintexpr and \xintfloatexpr
+precision: It seems from testing that absolute error is not much
+ more than 1 unit in the last place, and result X differs
+ from rounded mathematical value of log10(D) by at most
+ 1 unit in the last place.
+ (*attention estimate not rigorously proven*).
- \poormanloghack{**}
- \poormanloghack{^}
- They will now use pow10(y*log10(x)) formula to compute x to the power y
+\PMPowTen{#1} computes fractional powers of 10:
+-----------------------------------------------
- Of course this means drop of precision, but allows non-integer exponents.
- (half-integer exponents are already accepted in \xintfloatexpr natively).
+expansion: the argument is submitted to f-expansion and the macro
+ itself expands fully in two steps.
- ** xintexpr must have been loaded before **
+input: #1 must be (f-expands to) exactly 9 digits xxxxxxxxx, standing
+ for X = 0.xxxxxxxxx
-Example with LaTeX :
+output: 9 digits ddddddddd, such that D = d.dddddddd is about 10^X
+ The first digit of output is never zero (i.e. 1 <= D < 10)
- \documentclass{article}
- \usepackage{xintexpr}
- \usepackage{poormanlog}% makes log10() and pow10() available
- \poormanloghack{**} % modifies ** operator
- \begin{document}
- \xinteval{3.14159265**2.71828183, log10(3.14159265), pow10(2.71828)}
- \end{document}
+precision: It seems from testing that absolute error is less than
+ 2 units in the last place, and result D differs from
+ rounded mathematical value of 10^X by at most 2 units in
+ the last place.
+ (*attention estimate not rigorously proven*).
