Dear all,
a new update of our comparison is available:
https://members.loria.fr/PZimmermann/papers/accuracy.pdf
Main remarks about this update:
* more correctly-rounded functions in GNU libc and LLVM libc
* the Intel Math Library provides some cr_xxx functions: the user can choose
between the default function (log) and the correctly rounded one (cr_log)
* about two years after the adoption of C23, very few libraries implement
the new C23 functions
Specific to Newlib, we are still testing 4.6.0, with the following issues:
hypotl(x,0) gives infinity for x >= 2^8192, and C23 functions are still
missing.
