This uses a better rational approximation to improve the accuracy of
both functions. For exhaustive testing of asinf(3) in the interval, the
current libm gives:
% ./tlibm asin -fPED -x 0x1p-12f -X 1
Interval tested for asinf: [0.000244141,1]
ulp <= 0.5: 97.916% 98564994 | 97.916% 98564994
0.5 < ulp < 0.6: 2.038% 2051023 | 99.953% 100616017
0.6 < ulp < 0.7: 0.047% 47254 | 100.000% 100663271
0.7 < ulp < 0.8: 0.000% 25 | 100.000% 100663296
Max ulp: 0.729891 at 5.00732839e-01
which isn't too bad given that much of the computation is actually done
in double floating point.
With the new rational approximation, exhaustive testing yields:
% ./tlibm asin -fPED -x 0x1p-12f -X 1
Interval tested for asinf: [0.000244141,1]
ulp <= 0.5: 99.711% 100372643 | 99.711% 100372643
0.5 < ulp < 0.6: 0.288% 290357 | 100.000% 100663000
0.6 < ulp < 0.7: 0.000% 296 | 100.000% 100663296
Max ulp: 0.636344 at 5.09706438e-01
Similarly, for exhaustive testing of asinf(3) in the interval, the
current libm gives:
% ./tlibm acos -fPED -x -1 -X -0x1p-12f
Interval tested for acosf: [-1,-0.000244141]
ulp <= 0.5: 97.008% 97651921 | 97.008% 97651921
0.5 < ulp < 0.6: 2.441% 2457242 | 99.450% 100109163
0.6 < ulp < 0.7: 0.472% 475503 | 99.922% 100584666
0.7 < ulp < 0.8: 0.071% 71309 | 99.993% 100655975
0.8 < ulp < 0.9: 0.007% 7319 | 100.000% 100663294
0.9 < ulp < 1.0: 0.000% 2 | 100.000% 100663296
