public final class FastMath extends Object
Math
and StrictMath
for large scale computation.
FastMath is a drop-in replacement for both Math and StrictMath. This means that for any method in Math (say
Math.sin(x)
or Math.cbrt(y)
), user can directly change the class and use the methods as is (using
FastMath.sin(x)
or FastMath.cbrt(y)
in the previous example).
FastMath speed is achieved by relying heavily on optimizing compilers to native code present in many JVMs today and use of large tables. The larger tables are lazily initialised on first use, so that the setup time does not penalise methods that don't need them.
Note that FastMath is extensively used inside Apache Commons Math, so by calling some algorithms, the overhead when the the tables need to be intialised will occur regardless of the end-user calling FastMath methods directly or not. Performance figures for a specific JVM and hardware can be evaluated by running the FastMathTestPerformance tests in the test directory of the source distribution.
FastMath accuracy should be mostly independent of the JVM as it relies only on IEEE-754 basic operations and on embedded tables. Almost all operations are accurate to about 0.5 ulp throughout the domain range. This statement, of course is only a rough global observed behavior, it is not a guarantee for every double numbers input (see William Kahan's Table Maker's Dilemma).
FastMath additionally implements the following methods not found in Math/StrictMath:
The following methods are found in Math/StrictMath since 1.6 only, they are provided by FastMath even in 1.5 Java virtual machinescopySign(double, double)
getExponent(double)
nextAfter(double,double)
nextUp(double)
scalb(double, int)
copySign(float, float)
getExponent(float)
nextAfter(float,double)
nextUp(float)
scalb(float, int)
This version of FastMath never returns Double.NaN values. If result cannot be returned because undefined, an ArithmeticException is returned.

is returned; if less, then the largest representable number strictly less than d
is returned.
