Function Description IEEEremainder(double, double)Returns the remainder of f1 divided by f2 as defined by IEEE 754 abs(int a)Returns the absolute integer value of a abs(long a)Returns the absolute long value of a abs(float a)Returns the absolute float value of a abs(double a)Returns the absolute double value of a acos(double a)Returns the arc cosine of a, in the range of 0.0 through pi asin(double a)Returns the arc sine of a, in the range of -pi/2 through pi/2 atan(double a)Returns the arc tangent of a, in the range of -pi/2 through pi/2 atan2(double a, double b)Converts rectangular coordinates (a, b) to polar (r, theta) ceil(double a)Returns the "ceiling," or smallest whole number greater than or equal to a cos(double)Returns the trigonometric cosine of an angle exp(double a)Returns the exponential number e(2.718...) raised to the power of a floor(double a)Returns the "floor," or largest whole number less than or equal to a log(double a)Returns the natural logarithm (base e) of a max(int a, int b)Takes two int values, a and b, and returns the greater of the two max(long a, long b)Takes two long values, a and b, and returns the greater of the two max(float a, float b)Takes two float values, a and b, and returns the greater of the two max(double a, double b)Takes two double values, a and b, and returns the greater of the two min(int a, int b)Takes two integer values, a and b, and returns the smaller of the two min(long a, long b)Takes two long values, a and b, and returns the smaller of the two min(float a, float b)Takes two float values, a and b, and returns the smaller of the two min(double a, double b)Takes two double values, a and b, and returns the smaller of the two pow(double a, double b)Returns the number a raised to the power of b random()Generates a random number between 0.0 and 1.0 rint(double)Returns the closest integer to the argument, but as a floating-point number round(float)Rounds off a float value by first adding 0.5 to it and then returning the largest integer that is less than or equal to this new value round(double)Rounds off a double value by first adding 0.5 to it and then returning the largest integer that is less than or equal to this new value sin(double)Returns the trigonometric sine of an angle sqrt(double)Returns the square root of a tan(double)Returns the trigonometric tangent of an angle toDegrees(double)Translates radians to degrees toRadians(double)Translates degrees to radians
