Class FastMath

java.lang.Object
healpix.essentials.FastMath
public final class FastMath extends Object
FastMath class is a Java implementation of the SLEEF library. Some of the methods can be used as substitutions of the corresponding methods in Math class. They have slightly less accuracy, and some methods are faster compared to those methods in Math class. Please note that the methods in the standard Math class are JNI methods, and the SLEEF library is specialized for SIMD operations.
