C++ Math

C++ has many functions that allow you to complete mathematical calculations using numbers.

Max and min

It is the max(x,y) method can be utilized to determine the most significant value for the two variables:

Example

cout << max(5, 10);

The min(x,y) function could be used to determine the smallest value for both x and y.

Example

cout << min(5, 10);

C++ cmath tag Header

Other functions, for instance sqrt (square root), round (rounds the number) along with Log (natural logarithm) can be found within the cmath header files:

Example

// Include the cmath library
#include 

cout << sqrt(64);
cout << round(2.6);
cout << log(2);
