Presumably that's because you've chosen to use your own implementations instead? Not really, it's mainly because I have never needed any floating point math, let alone atan etc, nor printf and friends and hence no need for atof et al and string manipulation. Takes those out and there's little of the library left. "That's why they are in a library :-)"
Ah, so you've only reinvented it once? As you noted, my experience pre-dates C so perhaps reinvented is not quite the right word. Ian |
