/* log__L(Z)
 *		LOG(1+X) - 2S			       X
 * RETURN      ---------------  WHERE Z = S*S,  S = ------- , 0 <= Z <= .0294...
 *		      S				     2 + X
 *
 * DOUBLE PRECISION (VAX D FORMAT 56 bits or IEEE DOUBLE 53 BITS)
 * KERNEL FUNCTION FOR LOG; TO BE USED IN LOG1P, LOG, AND POW FUNCTIONS
 * CODED IN C BY K.C. NG, 1/19/85;
 * REVISED BY K.C. Ng, 2/3/85, 4/16/85.
 *
 * Method :
 *	1. Polynomial approximation: let s = x/(2+x).
 *	   Based on log(1+x) = log(1+s) - log(1-s)
 *		 = 2s + 2/3 s**3 + 2/5 s**5 + .....,
 *
 *	   (log(1+x) - 2s)/s is computed by
 *
 *	       z*(L1 + z*(L2 + z*(... (L7 + z*L8)...)))
 *
 *	   where z=s*s. (See the listing below for Lk's values.) The
 *	   coefficients are obtained by a special Remez algorithm.
 *
 * Accuracy:
 *	Assuming no rounding error, the maximum magnitude of the approximation
 *	error (absolute) is 2**(-58.49) for IEEE double, and 2**(-63.63)
 *	for VAX D format.
 *
 * Constants:
 * The hexadecimal values are the intended ones for the following constants.
 * The decimal values may be used, provided that the compiler will convert
 * from decimal to binary accurately enough to produce the hexadecimal values
 * shown.
