15 /* log(x)
16  * Return the logarithm of x
17  *
18  * Method :
19  *   1. Argument Reduction: find k and f such that
20  *			x = 2^k * (1+f),
21  *	   where  sqrt(2)/2 < 1+f < sqrt(2) .
22  *
23  *   2. Approximation of log(1+f).
24  *	Let s = f/(2+f) ; based on log(1+f) = log(1+s) - log(1-s)
25  *		 = 2s + 2/3 s**3 + 2/5 s**5 + .....,
26  *	     	 = 2s + s*R
27  *      We use a special Remes algorithm on [0,0.1716] to generate
28  * 	a polynomial of degree 14 to approximate R The maximum error
29  *	of this polynomial approximation is bounded by 2**-58.45. In
30  *	other words,
31  *		        2      4      6      8      10      12      14
32  *	    R(z) ~ Lg1*s +Lg2*s +Lg3*s +Lg4*s +Lg5*s  +Lg6*s  +Lg7*s
33  *  	(the values of Lg1 to Lg7 are listed in the program)
34  *	and
35  *	    |      2          14          |     -58.45
36  *	    | Lg1*s +...+Lg7*s    -  R(z) | <= 2
37  *	    |                             |
38  *	Note that 2s = f - s*f = f - hfsq + s*hfsq, where hfsq = f*f/2.
39  *	In order to guarantee error in log below 1ulp, we compute log
40  *	by
41  *		log(1+f) = f - s*(f - R)	(if f is not too large)
42  *		log(1+f) = f - (hfsq - s*(hfsq+R)).	(better accuracy)
43  *
44  *	3. Finally,  log(x) = k*ln2 + log(1+f).
45  *			    = k*ln2_hi+(f-(hfsq-(s*(hfsq+R)+k*ln2_lo)))
46  *	   Here ln2 is split into two floating point number:
47  *			ln2_hi + ln2_lo,
48  *	   where n*ln2_hi is always exact for |n| < 2000.
49  *
50  * Special cases:
51  *	log(x) is NaN with signal if x < 0 (including -INF) ;
52  *	log(+INF) is +INF; log(0) is -INF with signal;
53  *	log(NaN) is that NaN with no signal.
54  *
55  * Accuracy:
56  *	according to an error analysis, the error is always less than
57  *	1 ulp (unit in the last place).
58  *
59  * Constants:
60  * The hexadecimal values are the intended ones for the following
61  * constants. The decimal values may be used, provided that the
62  * compiler will convert from decimal to binary accurately enough
63  * to produce the hexadecimal values shown.
