Mathematical Functions (1) The math library file cmath Yes, this is a file with definitions for common and often used mathematical functions including: sine, cosine, log, and square root Provided by our C++ geniuses (Be thankful!) Using the math library Include the following at the top of your program #include CSE1222: Lecture 4The Ohio State University2
Mathematical Functions (1) How do you use or invoke a function in math? Specify … Its name Input parameters Retrieve its … Output or answer Remember y = f(x) from math? f is the name x is the input parameter y will hold the output A function has three parts: Name, input, and output CSE1222: Lecture 4The Ohio State University3
Mathematical Functions (1) The cmath library defines a function called sqrt … What do you think it does? Function names are descriptive Function names must be spelled exactly how they are defined in their defining library (cmath here, so don’t guess! Look it up) You must provide exactly how many input parameters a function is defined to take A function can output at most one answer only The square root function : Spelled sqrt Requires exactly one input parameter (a number) Outputs the square root of the input parameter Question: Where does the output or answer go??? CSE1222: Lecture 4The Ohio State University4
Mathematical Functions (2) This function invocation: double a = 81; double b = sqrt(a); Takes the value of the variable a as a single input parameter Executes the computation for a square root “Outputs” its answer in the assignment statement Rule (Memorize this!): The output value of a function invocation will relace the syntax of the function call in your program during program execution During execution of this code the second line will execute in the following way: double b = sqrt(a); <---- Before execution double b = sqrt(81); <---- Evaluates the input parameter double b = 9.0; <---- This line uses the rule above CSE1222: Lecture 4The Ohio State University5
Mathematical Functions (2) Is this program snippet nonsensical … Why or why not? double a = 81; sqrt(a); Is there a syntax error, i.e. will it compile? - No syntax error! But, avoid invoking a function in this way if it outputs a value. You are throwing away the output! Is there a syntax error? Is it nonsensical? double a = 81; cout << sqrt(a); No syntax error! If a function invocation outputs a value, then ensure that the syntax of the function call is used with other code that performs useful work This statement would output 11 cout << sqrt(121.0) << endl; CSE1222: Lecture 4The Ohio State University6
Mathematical Functions (2) Is there a syntax error? double a = 81; double b = sqrt(a); double c = sqrt(sqrt(a)) * b; No syntax error! A function can be used like a variable of the same data type Remember our rule regarding the output of a function invocation How is it used here to evaluate the third line? Here, a is 81, b is 9, and c is 27. Why? The sqrt function is called three separate times in this code snippet Which function is invoked first, which is invoked second, and then which is invoked third? CSE1222: Lecture 4The Ohio State University7
Mathematical Functions (3) What does the cmath library function pow do? Computes a b, where a and b are two numbers Its name tries to tell you what operation the function performs for you How many input parameters does this function require? We need a base and an exponent, so two input parameters Does this function output a single answer or no answer? It must return the value for a b, so one answer For example cout << pow(3.0, 4.0); would output 81 which is 3 to the 4 th power. Notice the two input parameters in the parenthesis (comma separated). The base must come BEFORE the power! CSE1222: Lecture 4The Ohio State University8
Mathematical Functions (4) Arguments passed into any function can be a constant, variable, or an expression that evaluates to the appropriate data type For Example, double j = 2.0; cout << sqrt(j * 32.0); //outputs 8 Remember, the sqrt function requires exactly one argument CSE1222: Lecture 4The Ohio State University9
Mathematical Functions (5) Functions can themselves be part of an expression double x = 10; cout << 5 * pow( (x - 3), 2.0 ); //output? Remember our rule regarding function output and where it goes? Remember, the pow function requires exactly two arguments CSE1222: Lecture 4The Ohio State University10

Arguments to Math Functions Input parameters (i.e., arguments) to math functions should have type double For example, double x(3.6), y(0.3), z(0.0); z = sin(1.2); z = sqrt(x); z = log(3.2 * x); z = pow(x / 0.5, 1.2 * y); CSE1222: Lecture 4The Ohio State University26

Modulus Operator: % In math a mod b is the remainder after integer a is divided by integer b You can think of this operator as a function: 1) name (%), two operands (two integer input parameters), one output (an integer) In C++ a mod b is written as: a % b Examples: 25 % 3 = ? 137 % 10 = ? 2751 % 2 = ? CSE1222: Lecture 4The Ohio State University32
Expression Types An expression consists of constants, variables, and function invocations that output single values and evaluates to a single answer For example, 5 * pow( (x - 3), 2.0 ) An expression that contains only integer operands is an integer expression An expression that contains only floating point operands is a floating-point expression CSE1222: Lecture 4The Ohio State University33
Mixing Expression Types A mixed-mode expression has both floating-point and integer data types The rules governing the data type of the result are: 1. If both operands are integers, the result is an integer 2. If one operand is a floating-point number, then the result is a double CSE1222: Lecture 4The Ohio State University34
Mixed Mode Expressions int a(3); double x(3.5), y(5), z(0.0); z = 3.0 * 25; z = a * x; z = a * y; What about: z = x + (a / 2); CSE1222: Lecture 4The Ohio State University35

Operator Precedence and Associativity The minus sign is overloaded Used as a binary operator for subtraction Used as a unary operator to negate the sign How do you know which one you are using? int a = b – c;<---- Is this negation? int a = - c; <---- Is this negation? Depends on the context, operator precedence, and associativity rules CSE1222: Lecture 4The Ohio State University42
