Once you write something for 'double func(double)', you've got:
sin, cos, tan, sinh, cosh, tanh, asin, acos,
atan, exp, log, log10, sqrt, ceil, floor, fabs
And once you do 'double func(double, double)', then you have:
atan2, pow, fmod
These are all readily available when you compile with <math.h>.
Although I'd love to see an operator to raise a number to a power,
that would appear far more complicated that just providing pow().
Personally, I can do without the trig and rounding stuff, but find
exp(), log() and pow() to be essential. OTOH, adding the other
functions is almost completely cost free.
