Contents of the Math Libraries

Altogether, there are three math libraries:

•libm.a—A set of functions required by the various standards to which the operating system conforms

•libm.so—(Solaris 2.x only) The shared version of libm.a

•libsunmath.a—A set of functions not required by the standards, but are of common use

Table 11-1 lists the contents of the math libraries.
