Yeah, I made a mistake, it was acosh() not cosh the one that gave me trouble (the rotation mode in CORDIC is quite stable, vectoring mode is much worse), since the argument close to 1 leaves you very few significant digits to work with. Also ln() is very tricky (it's also in rotation mode), because the input to the CORDIC algorithm is (1-x) and (1+x). When x is close to one you lose a lot of digits in the first one, and when it's close to zero you lose them in the other one. Can't win. Claudio |
