# OpenLibm
2012-08-19 08:22:43 +02:00
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/JuliaLang/openlibm.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/JuliaLang/openlibm)
[OpenLibm](http://www.openlibm.org) is an effort to have a high quality, portable, standalone
C mathematical library ([`libm`](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/libm)).
It can be used standalone in applications and programming language

implementations.

The project was born out of a need to have a good `libm` for the
[Julia programming langage](http://www.julialang.org) that worked
consistently across compilers and operating systems, and in 32-bit and
64-bit environments.

OpenLibm builds on Linux, Mac OS X, Windows, and FreeBSD. It builds
with both GCC and clang. Although largely tested on x86, it also
includes experimental support for ARM.
