java.lang.Math


Examples of java.lang.Math Methods
Here is an example program that exercises most of the routines in java.lang.Math. If your high school math is a little rusty, don't worry if you don't remember the exact meaning of logarithms or cosines. Just know that they're here in Java if you need them.
public class MathLibraryExample {

  public static void main(String[] args) {
   
    int i = 7;
    int j = -9;
    double x = 72.3;
    double y = 0.34;
 
    System.out.println("i is " + i);    
    System.out.println("j is " + j);
    System.out.println("x is " + x);    
    System.out.println("y is " + y);
    
    // The absolute value of a number is equal to
    // the number if the number is positive or
    // zero and equal to the negative of the number
    // if the number is negative.

    System.out.println("|" + i + "| is " + Math.abs(i));    
    System.out.println("|" + j + "| is " + Math.abs(j));
    System.out.println("|" + x + "| is " + Math.abs(x));    
    System.out.println("|" + y + "| is " + Math.abs(y));

    // Truncating and Rounding functions

    // You can round off a floating point number 
    // to the nearest integer with round()
     System.out.println(x + " is approximately " + Math.round(x));    
     System.out.println(y + " is approximately " + Math.round(y));    

    // The "ceiling" of a number is the  
    // smallest integer greater than or equal to
    // the number. Every integer is its own
    // ceiling.
     System.out.println("The ceiling of " + i + " is " + Math.ceil(i));    
     System.out.println("The ceiling of " + j + " is " + Math.ceil(j));
     System.out.println("The ceiling of " + x + " is " + Math.ceil(x));    
     System.out.println("The ceiling of " + y + " is " + Math.ceil(y));

     // The "floor" of a number is the largest 
     // integer less than or equal to the number.
     // Every integer is its own floor.
     System.out.println("The floor of " + i + " is " + Math.floor(i));    
     System.out.println("The floor of " + j + " is " + Math.floor(j));
     System.out.println("The floor of " + x + " is " + Math.floor(x));    
     System.out.println("The floor of " + y + " is " + Math.floor(y));

     // Comparison operators

     // min() returns the smaller of the two arguments you pass it
     System.out.println("min(" + i + "," + j + ") is " + Math.min(i,j));    
     System.out.println("min(" + x + "," + y + ") is " + Math.min(x,y));    
     System.out.println("min(" + i + "," + x + ") is " + Math.min(i,x));    
     System.out.println("min(" + y + "," + j + ") is " + Math.min(y,j));    

     // There's a corresponding max() method
     // that returns the larger of two numbers
     System.out.println("max(" + i + "," + j + ") is " + Math.max(i,j));    
     System.out.println("max(" + x + "," + y + ") is " + Math.max(x,y));    
     System.out.println("max(" + i + "," + x + ") is " + Math.max(i,x));    
     System.out.println("max(" + y + "," + j + ") is " + Math.max(y,j));    
     
     // The Math library defines a couple
     // of useful constants:
     System.out.println("Pi is " + Math.PI);    
     System.out.println("e is " + Math.E);      
     // Trigonometric methods
    // All arguments are given in radians

    // Convert a 45 degree angle to radians
    double angle = 45.0 * 2.0 * Math.PI/360.0;
    System.out.println("cos(" + angle + ") is " + Math.cos(angle));     
    System.out.println("sin(" + angle + ") is " + Math.sin(angle));    
   
     // Inverse Trigonometric methods
     // All values are returned as radians
  
    double value = 0.707;

    System.out.println("acos(" + value + ") is " + Math.acos(value));    
    System.out.println("asin(" + value + ") is " + Math.asin(value));    
    System.out.println("atan(" + value + ") is " + Math.atan(value));    

    // Exponential and Logarithmic Methods
 
    // exp(a) returns e (2.71828...) raised
    // to the power of a.  
    System.out.println("exp(1.0) is "  + Math.exp(1.0));
    System.out.println("exp(10.0) is " + Math.exp(10.0));
    System.out.println("exp(0.0) is "  +  Math.exp(0.0));

    // log(a) returns  the natural
    // logarithm (base e) of a.
    System.out.println("log(1.0) is "    + Math.log(1.0));
    System.out.println("log(10.0) is "   + Math.log(10.0));
    System.out.println("log(Math.E) is " + Math.log(Math.E));

    // pow(x, y) returns the x raised
    // to the yth power.
    System.out.println("pow(2.0, 2.0) is "  + Math.pow(2.0,2.0));
    System.out.println("pow(10.0, 3.5) is " + Math.pow(10.0,3.5));
    System.out.println("pow(8, -1) is "     + Math.pow(8,-1));

    // sqrt(x) returns the square root of x.
    for (i=0; i < 10; i++) {
      System.out.println(
       "The square root of " + i + " is " + Math.sqrt(i));
    }

      
    // Finally there's one Random method
    // that returns a pseudo-random number
    // between 0.0 and 1.0;
   
    System.out.println("Here's one random number: " + Math.random());    
    System.out.println("Here's another random number: " + Math.random());

  }

}
