Abstract

See full text

An aspect includes an apparatus for evaluating a mathematical function at an input value. The apparatus includes a selector for selecting a mathematical function, an input for a value at which to evaluate the function, an identifier for identifying an interval containing the input value. The interval is described by at least one polynomial function. At least one control point representing the polynomial function is retrieved from at least one look up table, and the polynomial function can be derived from the control points. The function is evaluated at the input value and an output of the evaluation is used as a value of the function at that input value.
