  (In the foregoing descriptions, a floating-point value is considered to be an integer if and only if it is finite and a fixed point of the methodceil or, equivalently, a fixed point of the methodfloor. A value is a fixed point of a one-argument method if and only if the result of applying the method to the value is equal to the value.)

  API Note:

  The special cases definitions of this method differ from the special case definitions of the IEEE 754 recommended pow operation for ±1.0 raised to an infinite power. This method treats such cases as indeterminate and specifies a NaN is returned. The IEEE 754 specification treats the infinite power as a large integer (large-magnitude floating-point numbers are numerically integers, specifically even integers) and therefore specifies1.0 be returned.

  a - base.

  b - the exponent.

  the valueab.

  public static double random()

  Returns adouble value with a positive sign, greater than or equal to0.0 and less than1.0. Returned values are chosen pseudorandomly with (approximately) uniform distribution from that range.

  new java.util.Random()

  This new pseudorandom-number generator is used thereafter for all calls to this method and is used nowhere else.

  This method is properly synchronized to allow correct use by more than one thread. However, if many threads need to generate pseudorandom numbers at a great rate, it may reduce contention for each thread to have its own pseudorandom-number generator.

  Returns:

  a pseudorandomdouble greater than or equal to0.0 and less than1.0.

  Returns the absolute value of anint value. If the argument is not negative, the argument is returned. If the argument is negative, the negation of the argument is returned.

  Note that if the argument is equal to the value ofInteger.MIN_VALUE, the most negative representableint value, the result is that same value, which is negative. In contrast, theabsExact(int) method throws anArithmeticException for this value.

  Since the range of two's complement integers is asymmetric with one additional negative value (JLS4.2.1), the mathematical absolute value ofInteger.MIN_VALUE overflows the positiveint range, so an exception is thrown for that argument.

• fma

  public static double fma(double a, double b, double c)

  Returns the fused multiply add of the three arguments; that is, returns the exact product of the first two arguments summed with the third argument and then rounded once to the nearestdouble.

In contrast, ifa * b + c is evaluated as a regular floating-point expression, two rounding errors are involved, the first for the multiply operation, the second for the addition operation.

  Special cases:

  • If any argument is NaN, the result is NaN.
  • If one of the first two arguments is infinite and the other is zero, the result is NaN.
  • If the exact product of the first two arguments is infinite (in other words, at least one of the arguments is infinite and the other is neither zero nor NaN) and the third argument is an infinity of the opposite sign, the result is NaN.

  Note thatfusedMac(a, 1.0, c) returns the same result as (a + c). However,fusedMac(a, b, +0.0) doesnot always return the same result as (a * b) sincefusedMac(-0.0, +0.0, +0.0) is+0.0 while (-0.0 * +0.0) is-0.0;fusedMac(a, b, -0.0) is equivalent to (a * b) however.

  • If the exact product of the first two arguments is infinite (in other words, at least one of the arguments is infinite and the other is neither zero nor NaN) and the third argument is an infinity of the opposite sign, the result is NaN.

  Note thatfma(a, 1.0f, c) returns the same result as (a + c). However,fma(a, b, +0.0f) doesnot always return the same result as (a * b) sincefma(-0.0f, +0.0f, +0.0f) is+0.0f while (-0.0f * +0.0f) is-0.0f;fma(a, b, -0.0f) is equivalent to (a * b) however.
