java.lang.Math FUNCTIONS - A SHORT DESCRIPTION OF MOST OF THE MATHEMATICAL FUNCTIONS IN JAVA

Here are most of the methods that that are included in the Math class of java.lang package. I have mentioned most of the methods with prototype, description related to returning value of the method, and some examples for each method along with their output.



1-17 are the Rounding functions
18-21 are Exponential functions
22-28 are the Transcendental functions
29-32 are some Miscellaneous math functions.
