Talk:cpp/numeric/special functions
From cppreference.com
< Talk:cpp
Can we please fix this page's URL? The URL "special_math" perpetuates a common misnomer. These are not "special mathematical functions" or functions for "special math", they are "special functions". That is an established term of art, see:
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_functions
- http://eqworld.ipmnet.ru/en/auxiliary/aux-specfunc.htm
- http://specialfunctionswiki.org/
- http://mathworld.wolfram.com/SpecialFunction.html
Can the URL please be changed to "cpp/numeric/special_functions" or "cpp/numeric/special_func" or something like that?
Also, the dropdown generated by Template:cpp/numeric/navbar_content says "Special mathematical functions", even though the actual heading at Numerics library is correct.
