I _realy_ thankful for your advice in general and neither I would
like to criticize anybody who contribute to libstdc++ with my original email.
And it's not university lecture, but would you explain me the above
sentence with two or three additional sentence. I assume stdc++
use standard math functions from libc, so why we cant use hypot here?
since stdc++ already check and use hypot (eg. in libmath/stubs.c).
thanks.
