Additional Mathematical Operators

• In Java, additional mathematical operators are given in a package called Math as methods. These methods typically use arguments and results of type double. To compute exponents:

• The API: public static double pow(double a, double b)

• To use it:

• Also: public static double sqrt (double a )

• And many more, such as sin, cos, min, max!

double x, y, z ;

x = 1.5 ;

y = 2.0 ;

z = Math.pow ( x, y ) ;
