[template history[] [h4 Boost-1.47] * Added changesign function to sign.hpp to facilitate addition of nonfinite facets. * Addition of nonfinite facetsfrom Johan Rade, with tests, examples of use for C99 format infinity and NaN, and documentation. * Added tests and documentation of changesign from Johan Rade. [h4 Boost-1.46.1] * Fixed issues [@https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/5095 #5095], [@https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/5095 #5113]. [h4 Boost-1.46.0] * Added Wald, Inverse Gaussian and geometric distributions. * Added information about configuration macros. * Added support for mpreal as a real-numbered type. [h4 Boost-1.45.0] * Added warnings about potential ambiguity with std random library in distribution and function names. * Added inverse gamma distribution and inverse chi_square and scaled inverse chi_square. * Editorial revision of documentation, and added FAQ. [h4 Boost-1.44.0] * Fixed incorrect range and support for Rayleigh distribution. * Fixed numerical error in the quantile of the Student's T distribution: the function was returning garbage values for non-integer degrees of freedom between 2 and 3. [h4 Boost-1.41.0] * Significantly improved performance for the incomplete gamma function and its inverse. [h4 Boost-1.40.0] * Added support for MPFR as a bignum type. * Added some full specializations of the policy classes to reduce compile times. * Added logistic and hypergeometric distributions, from Gautam Sewani's Google Summer of Code project. * Added Laplace distribution submitted by Thijs van den Berg. * Updated performance test code to include new distributions, and improved the performance of the non-central distributions. * Added SSE2 optimised __lanczos code, from Gautam Sewani's Google Summer of Code project. * Fixed bug in cyl_bessel_i that used an incorrect approximation for [nu] = 0.5, also effects the non-central Chi Square Distribution when [nu] = 3, see bug report [@https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/2877 #2877]. * Fixed minor bugs [@https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/2873 #2873]. [h4 Boost-1.38.0] * Added Johan R'''å'''de's optimised floating point classification routines. * Fixed code so that it compiles in GCC's -pedantic mode (bug report [@https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/1451 #1451]). [h4 Boost-1.37.0] * Improved accuracy and testing of the inverse hypergeometric functions. [h4 Boost-1.36.0] * Added Noncentral Chi Squared Distribution. * Added Noncentral Beta Distribution. * Added Noncentral F Distribution. * Added Noncentral T Distribution. * Added Exponential Integral Functions. * Added Zeta Function. * Added Rounding and Truncation functions. * Added Compile time powers of runtime bases. * Added SSE2 optimizations for Lanczos evaluation. [h4 Boost-1.35.0: Post Review First Official Release] * Added Policy based framework that allows fine grained control over function behaviour. * [*Breaking change:] Changed default behaviour for domain, pole and overflow errors to throw an exception (based on review feedback), this behaviour can be customised using __Policy's. * [*Breaking change:] Changed exception thrown when an internal evaluation error occurs to boost::math::evaluation_error. * [*Breaking change:] Changed discrete quantiles to return an integer result: this is anything up to 20 times faster than finding the true root, this behaviour can be customised using __Policy's. * Polynomial/rational function evaluation is now customisable and hopefully faster than before. * Added performance test program. [h4 Milestone 4: Second Review Candidate (1st March 2007)] * Moved Xiaogang Zhang's Bessel Functions code into the library, and brought them into line with the rest of the code. * Added C# "Distribution Explorer" demo application. [h4 Milestone 3: First Review Candidate (31st Dec 2006)] * Implemented the main probability distribution and density functions. * Implemented digamma. * Added more factorial functions. * Implemented the Hermite, Legendre and Laguerre polynomials plus the spherical harmonic functions from TR1. * Moved Xiaogang Zhang's elliptic integral code into the library, and brought them into line with the rest of the code. * Moved Hubert Holin's existing Boost.Math special functions into this library and brought them into line with the rest of the code. [h4 Milestone 2: Released September 10th 2006] * Implement preview release of the statistical distributions. * Added statistical distributions tutorial. * Implemented root finding algorithms. * Implemented the inverses of the incomplete gamma and beta functions. * Rewrite erf/erfc as rational approximations (valid to 128-bit precision). * Integrated the statistical results generated from the test data with Boost.Test: uses a database of expected results, indexed by test, floating point type, platform, and compiler. * Improved lgamma near 1 and 2 (rational approximations). * Improved erf/erfc inverses (rational approximations). * Implemented Rational function generation (the Remez method). [h4 Milestone 1: Released March 31st 2006] * Implement gamma/beta/erf functions along with their incomplete counterparts. * Generate high quality test data, against which future improvements can be judged. * Provide tools for the evaluation of infinite series, continued fractions, and rational functions. * Provide tools for testing against tabulated test data, and collecting statistics on error rates. * Provide sufficient docs for people to be able to find their way around the library.
