It might be that. Just implemented the functions
taking advantage of their presence in the standard set
of math functions of the C library, so the C people
might be more familiar that the rest I guess.
I was going to add the erf, gamma, etc. function, but
I am not sure if those are of general use (and because
I am just starting to familiarize myself w/ the
Zend/PHP macros/coding style)
