4.3.2 Generic Numerics

4.3.2 Generic Numerics🔗ℹ

Most Racket numeric operations work on any kind of number.

4.3.2.1 Arithmetic🔗ℹ

Returns the sum of the zs, adding pairwise from left to right. If no arguments are provided, the result is 0.

Examples:

> (+ 1 2)

3

> (+ 1.0 2+3i 5)

8.0+3.0i

> (+)

0

When no

w

s are supplied, returns

(- 0 z)

. Otherwise, returns the subtraction of the

w

s from

z

working pairwise from left to right.

Examples:

> (- 5 3.0)

2.0

> (- 1)

-1

> (- 2+7i 1 3)

-2+7i

Returns the product of the zs, multiplying pairwise from left to right. If no arguments are provided, the result is 1. Multiplying any number by exact 0 produces exact 0.

s are supplied, returns

(/ 1 z)

. Otherwise, returns the division of

z

by the

w

s working pairwise from left to right.

If z is exact 0 and no w is exact 0, then the result is exact 0. If any w is exact 0, the exn:fail:contract:divide-by-zero exception is raised.

4.3.2.2 Number Comparison🔗ℹ

Returns #t if all of the arguments are numerically equal, #f otherwise. An inexact number is numerically equal to an exact number when the exact coercion of the inexact number is the exact number. Also, 0.0 and -0.0 are numerically equal, but +nan.0 is not numerically equal to itself.

Examples:

> (= 1 1.0)

#t

> (= 1 2)

#f

> (= 2+3i 2+3i 2+3i)

#t

4.3.2.3 Powers and Roots🔗ℹ

Returns the principal

square root of

z

. The result is exact if

(* (integer-sqrt (- n)) 0+1i)

.

Examples:

Examples:

Returns z raised to the power of w.

If w is exact 0, the result is exact 1. If w is 0.0 or -0.0 and z is a real number other than exact 1 or 0, the result is 1.0 (even if z is +nan.0).

If z is exact 1, the result is exact 1. If z is 1.0 and w is a real number, the result is 1.0 (even if w is +nan.0).

If z is exact 0, the result is as follows:

If

w

is exact

1/2

, the result is the same as

(sqrt z)

, which can be exact. Other fractional powers are not treated specially in this manner:

Further special cases when

w

is a

real number

:

These special cases correspond to pow in C99 [C99], except when z is negative and w is a not an integer.

Examples:

Returns the natural logarithm of

z

. The result is normally inexact, but it is exact

0

when

z

is an exact

1

. When

z

is exact

0

,

exn:fail:contract:divide-by-zero

exception is raised.

If b is provided, it serves as an alternative base. It is equivalent to (/ (log z) (log b)), but can potentially run faster. If b is exact 1, exn:fail:contract:divide-by-zero exception is raised.

Consider using fllogb from math/flonum instead when accuracy is important.

Examples:

> (log (exp 1))

1.0

> (log 2+3i)

1.2824746787307684+0.982793723247329i

> (log 5 5)

1.0

Changed in version 6.9.0.1 of package base: Added second argument for arbitrary bases.

4.3.2.4 Trigonometric Functions🔗ℹ

Returns the sine of z, where z is in radians. The result is normally inexact, but it is exact 0 if z is exact 0.

Examples:

> (sin 3.14159)

2.65358979335273e-6

> (sin 1.0+5.0i)

62.44551846769654+40.0921657779984i

Returns the cosine of z, where z is in radians.

Examples:

> (cos 3.14159)

-0.9999999999964793

> (cos 1.0+5.0i)

40.09580630629883-62.43984868079963i

Returns the tangent of z, where z is in radians. The result is normally inexact, but it is exact 0 if z is exact 0.

Examples:

> (tan 0.7854)

1.0000036732118496

> (tan 1.0+5.0i)

8.256719834229597e-5+1.0000377833796008i

Returns the arcsine in radians of z. The result is normally inexact, but it is exact 0 if z is exact 0.

Examples:

> (asin 0.25)

0.25268025514207865

> (asin 1.0+5.0i)

0.1937931365549322+2.3309746530493123i

Returns the arccosine in radians of z.

Examples:

> (acos 0.25)

1.318116071652818

> (acos 1.0+5.0i)

1.3770031902399644-2.3309746530493123i

In the one-argument case, returns the arctangent of the inexact approximation of

z

, except that the result is an exact

0

for

z

as

0

, and the

exn:fail:contract:divide-by-zero

exception is raised for

z

as exact

0+1i

or exact

0-1i

.

In the two-argument case, the result is roughly the same as (atan (/ (exact->inexact y)) (exact->inexact x)), but the signs of y and x determine the quadrant of the result. Moreover, a suitable angle is returned when y divided by x produces +nan.0 in the case that neither y nor x is +nan.0. Finally, if y is exact 0 and x is a positive number, the result is exact 0. If both x and y are exact 0, the exn:fail:contract:divide-by-zero exception is raised.

Examples:

> (atan 0.5)

0.4636476090008061

> (atan 2 1)

1.1071487177940904

> (atan +inf.0 -inf.0)

2.356194490192345

Changed in version 7.2.0.2 of package base: Changed to raise exn:fail:contract:divide-by-zero for 0+1i and 0-1i and to produce exact 0 for any positive x (not just exact values) when y is 0.

4.3.2.5 Complex Numbers🔗ℹ

Creates a complex number with

x

as the real part and

y

as the imaginary part. That is, returns

.

Examples:

Returns the real part of the complex number z in rectangle coordinates.

Examples:

Returns the imaginary part of the complex number z in rectangle coordinates.

Examples:

Returns the magnitude of the complex number z in polar coordinates. A complex number with +inf.0 or -inf.0 as a component has magnitude +inf.0, even if the other component is +nan.0.

Examples:

Changed in version 7.2.0.2 of package base: Changed to always return +inf.0 for a complex number with a +inf.0 or -inf.0 component.

Returns the angle of the complex number z in polar coordinates.

The result is guaranteed to be between (- pi) and pi, possibly equal to pi (but never equal to (- pi)).

4.3.2.6 Bitwise Operations🔗ℹ

Returns the bitwise “inclusive or” of the ns in their (semi-infinite) two’s complement representation. If no arguments are provided, the result is 0.

Examples:

Returns the bitwise “and” of the ns in their (semi-infinite) two’s complement representation. If no arguments are provided, the result is -1.

Examples:

Returns the bitwise “exclusive or” of the ns in their (semi-infinite) two’s complement representation. If no arguments are provided, the result is 0.

Examples:

Returns the bitwise “not” of n in its (semi-infinite) two’s complement representation.

Examples:

Returns #t when the mth bit of n is set in n’s (semi-infinite) two’s complement representation.

This operation is equivalent to (not (zero? (bitwise-and n (arithmetic-shift 1 m)))), but it is faster and runs in constant time when n is positive.

Examples:

Returns

-1

if

n

is

0

, otherwise returns the smallest

m

for which

(bitwise-bit-set? n m)

produces

#t

.

Example:

Added in version 8.16.0.4 of package base.

This operation is equivalent to (not (zero? (bitwise-and n (arithmetic-shift 1 m)))), but it is faster and runs in constant time when n is positive.

}

Extracts the bits between position

start

and

(- end 1)

(inclusive) from

n

and shifts them down to the least significant portion of the number.

This operation is equivalent to the computation

but it runs in constant time when n is positive, start and end are fixnums, and (- end start) is no more than the maximum width of a fixnum.

Each pair of examples below uses the same numbers, showing the result both in binary and as integers.

Examples:

Returns the bitwise “shift” of

n

in its (semi-infinite) two’s complement representation. If

m

is non-negative, the integer

n

is shifted left by

m

bits; i.e.,

m

new zeros are introduced as rightmost digits. If

m

is negative,

n

is shifted right by

(- m)

bits; i.e., the rightmost

m

digits are dropped.

Examples:

Returns the number of bits in the (semi-infinite) two’s complement representation of n after removing all leading zeros (for non-negative n) or ones (for negative n).

Examples:

4.3.2.7 Random Numbers🔗ℹ

When called with an integer argument k, returns a random exact integer in the range 0 to k-1.

When called with two integer arguments min and max, returns a random exact integer in the range min to max-1.

When called with zero arguments, returns a random inexact number between 0 and 1, exclusive.

In each case, the number is provided by the given pseudo-random number generator (which defaults to the current one, as produced by current-pseudo-random-generator). The generator maintains an internal state for generating numbers. The random number generator uses L’Ecuyer’s MRG32k3a algorithm [L'Ecuyer02] that has a state space of practically 192 bits.

When security is a concern, use crypto-random-bytes instead of random.

The math/base library provides additional functions for random number generation without the limit of 4294967087.

Changed in version 6.4 of package base: Added support for ranges.

Seeds the current pseudo-random number generator with k. Seeding a generator sets its internal state deterministically; that is, seeding a generator with a particular number forces it to produce a sequence of pseudo-random numbers that is the same across runs and across platforms.

The random-seed function is convenient for some purposes, but note that the space of states for a pseudo-random number generator is much larger that the space of allowed values for k. Use vector->pseudo-random-generator! to set a pseudo-random number generator to any of its possible states.

Returns a new pseudo-random number generator. The new generator is seeded with a number derived from

(current-milliseconds)

.

Returns #t if v is a pseudo-random number generator, #f otherwise.

A

parameter

that determines the pseudo-random number generator used by

random

.

Produces a vector that represents the complete internal state of

rand-gen

. The vector is suitable as an argument to

vector->pseudo-random-generator

to recreate the generator in its current state (across runs and across platforms).

Produces a pseudo-random number generator whose internal state corresponds to vec.

Returns #t if v is a vector of six exact integers, where the first three integers are in the range 0 to 4294967086, inclusive; the last three integers are in the range 0 to 4294944442, inclusive; at least one of the first three integers is non-zero; and at least one of the last three integers is non-zero. Otherwise, the result is #f.

4.3.2.8 Other Randomness Utilities🔗ℹ

Provides an interface to randomness from the underlying operating system. Use

crypto-random-bytes

instead of

random

wherever security is a concern.

Returns n random bytes. On Unix systems, the bytes are obtained from "/dev/urandom", while Windows uses the RtlGenRand system function.

Example:

Added in version 6.3 of package base.

Returns a random element of the sequence. Like

sequence-length

, does not terminate on infinite sequences, and evaluates the entire sequence.

Added in version 6.4 of package base.

Returns a list of n elements of seq, picked at random, listed in any order. If replacement? is non-false, elements are drawn with replacement, which allows for duplicates.

Like sequence-length, does not terminate on infinite sequences, and evaluates the entire sequence.

Added in version 6.4 of package base.

4.3.2.9 Number–String Conversions🔗ℹ

Returns a string that is the printed form of

z

(see

Printing Numbers

) in the base specified by

radix

. If

z

is inexact,

radix

must be

10

, otherwise the

exn:fail:contract

exception is raised.

Examples:

 â†’ (or/c number? #f string? extflonum?)   s : string?   radix : (integer-in 2 16) = 10    convert-mode   :   (or/c 'number-or-false 'read)       =   'number-or-false    decimal-mode   :   (or/c 'decimal-as-inexact 'decimal-as-exact)       =      single-mode   :   (or/c 'single 'double)       =  

Reads and returns a number datum from

s

(see

Reading Numbers

). The optional

radix

argument specifies the default base for the number, which can be overridden by

#b

,

#o

,

#d

, or

#x

in the string.

If convert-mode is 'number-or-false, the result is #f if s does not parse exactly as a number datum (with no whitespace). If convert-mode is 'read, the result can be an extflonum, and it can be a string that contains an error message if read of s would report a reader exception (but the result can still be #f if read would report a symbol).

The decimal-mode argument controls number parsing the same way that the read-decimal-as-inexact parameter affects read.

The single-mode argument controls number parsing the same way that the read-single-flonum parameter affects read.

Examples:

Changed in version 6.8.0.2 of package base: Added the convert-mode and decimal-mode arguments.
Changed in version 7.3.0.5: Added the single-mode argument.

Prints n into a string and returns the string. The printed form of n shows exactly decimal-digits digits after the decimal point. The printed form uses a minus sign if n is negative, and it does not use a plus sign if n is positive.

Before printing, n is converted to an exact number, multiplied by (expt 10 decimal-digits), rounded, and then divided again by (expt 10 decimal-digits). The result of this process is an exact number whose decimal representation has no more than decimal-digits digits after the decimal (and it is padded with trailing zeros if necessary).

If n is a real number with no decimal representation (e.g. +nan.0, +inf.0), then the exn:fail:contract exception is raised. (Any real number that is convertible to decimal notation is rational, so n must be rational?, despite the name of the function.)

Examples:

Converts the machine-format number encoded in

bstr

to an exact integer. The

start

and

end

arguments specify the substring to decode, where

(- end start)

must be

1

,

2

,

4

, or

8

. If

signed?

is true, then the bytes are decoded as a two’s-complement number, otherwise it is decoded as an unsigned integer. If

big-endian?

is true, then the first byte’s value provides the most significant eight bits of the number, otherwise the first byte provides the least-significant eight bits, and so on.

Changed in version 6.10.0.1 of package base: Added support for decoding a 1-byte string.

Converts the exact integer n to a machine-format number encoded in a byte string of length size-n, which must be 1, 2, 4, or 8. If signed? is true, then the number is encoded as two’s complement, otherwise it is encoded as an unsigned bit stream. If big-endian? is true, then the most significant eight bits of the number are encoded in the first byte of the resulting byte string, otherwise the least-significant bits are encoded in the first byte, and so on.

The dest-bstr argument must be a mutable byte string of length size-n. The encoding of n is written into dest-bstr starting at offset start, and dest-bstr is returned as the result.

If n cannot be encoded in a byte string of the requested size and format, the exn:fail:contract exception is raised. If dest-bstr is not of length size-n, the exn:fail:contract exception is raised.

Changed in version 6.10.0.1 of package base: Added support for encoding a 1-byte value.

Converts the IEEE floating-point number encoded in bstr from position start (inclusive) to end (exclusive) to an inexact real number. The difference between start an end must be either 4 or 8 bytes. If big-endian? is true, then the first byte’s ASCII value provides the most significant eight bits of the IEEE representation, otherwise the first byte provides the least-significant eight bits, and so on.

Converts the real number x to its IEEE representation in a byte string of length size-n, which must be 4 or 8. If big-endian? is true, then the most significant eight bits of the number are encoded in the first byte of the resulting byte string, otherwise the least-significant bits are encoded in the first character, and so on.

The dest-bstr argument must be a mutable byte string of length size-n. The encoding of n is written into dest-bstr starting with byte start, and dest-bstr is returned as the result.

If dest-bstr is provided and it has less than start plus size-n bytes, the exn:fail:contract exception is raised.

Returns #t if the native encoding of numbers is big-endian for the machine running Racket, #f if the native encoding is little-endian.
