No it is not, this is the problem here. That is from the thread you
wrote in. You did not test every single input to figure out if your
implementation is better or worse. I think it might be best if you
tested every input include NaNs and infs. That is where some problems
come into play also I think.
Remember that a NaN input should result in a NaN result.
Thanks,
