Simon Chess commented on CASSANDRA-17221:
-----------------------------------------

Hello, I am new to working on Cassandra, should I keep the new functions 
contained within the MathFcts class or should I add abs, log, exp, log10, and 
round to each of the NumberTypes? I'm not sure if it's better to keep things 
more contained or to be more object oriented.

> We should add native Maths functions for the most common operations:
> * {{abs\(x)}} returns the absolute value of the x
> * {{exp\(x)}} returns the value of e (the base of natural logarithms) raised 
> to the power of x
> * {{log\(x)}} returns the natural logarithm (base e) of x
> * {{log10\(x)}} returns the base-10 logarithm of x
> * {{round\(x)}} returns the closest integer to x
> +Additional information for newcomers:+
> The new functions should be put in a new class {{MathFcts}} similar to 
> {{TimeFcts}}.
> The {{MathsFcts.all()}} method should be called in 
> {{SystemKeyspace.functions}}
> The unit tests for the functions should be put in a {{MathFctsTest}} similar 
> to {{TimeFctsTest}}
