Ensure that the trig functions return NaN for NaN input regardless of what the underlying C library functions might do. Also ensure that an error is thrown for Inf (or otherwise out-of-range) input, except for atan/atan2 which should accept it. All these behaviors should now conform to the POSIX spec; previously, all our popular platforms deviated from that in one case or another. The main remaining platform dependency here is whether the C library might choose to throw a domain error for sin/cos/tan inputs that are large but less than infinity. (Doing so is not unreasonable, since once a single unit-in-the-last-place exceeds PI, there can be no significance at all in the result; however there doesn't seem to be any suggestion in POSIX that such an error is allowed.) We will report such errors if they are reported via "errno", but not if they are reported via "fetestexcept" which is the other mechanism sanctioned by POSIX. Some preliminary experiments with fetestexcept indicated that it might also report errors we could do without, such as complaining about underflow at an unreasonably large threshold. So let's skip that complexity for now. Dean Rasheed, reviewed by Michael Paquier |

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
