.SH SYNOPSIS
.B #include <ccs/math.h>
.SH DESCRIPTION
This file contains declarations of all the functions in the
Math Library (described in Section 3M),
as well as various other functions
that return floating-point values.
.P
It defines the structure and constants used by the
.IR matherr (3M)
error-handling mechanisms, including
the following constant used as an
error-return value:
.P
.TP 20
.SM
HUGE
The maximum value of a single-precision floating-point number.
