Geometry related functions
Math::Geometry implements classic geomtrical functions in Perl, it has an
emphasis on 3 dimensional geometry including projects, rotations and other
standard 3 dimensional operations.
Random number generators
Math::Random is a Perl port of the C version of randlib, which is a
suite of routines for generating random deviates.
Perl interface to a truly random number generator function
The Math::TrulyRandom module provides an ability to generate truly random
numbers from within Perl programs. The source of the randomness is from
interrupt timing discrepancies.
Perl module implements the evolution search strategy
p5-Math-Evol implements the evolution search strategy. Derivatives of the
objective function are not required. Constraints can be incorporated. The
caller must supply initial values for the variables and for the initial
step sizes.
Retrieve random numbers and data from random.org
Math::RandomOrg provides functions for retrieving random data from the
random.org server. Data may be retrieved in an integer or byte-stream
format using the randnum and randbyte functions respectively.

Perl extension for rounding numbers
Math::Round supplies functions that will round numbers in different ways. The
functions round and nearest are exported by default; others are available as
described below. "use ... qw(:all)" exports all functions.
Support for LaTeX math formulas in wiki pages
Allow embedded equations in wiki pages. Basically a port of mt-math to
trac.
Perl interface to the GMP library rational (mpq) functions
Math::GMPq is a bigrational module utilising the GNU MP (GMP) library. Basically
this module simply wraps all of the mpq rational functions provided by that
library. See the Math::GMPq test suite for some examples of usage.
IMPORTANT:
If your perl was built with '-Duse64bitint' you need to assign all integers
larger than 52-bit in a 'use integer;' block. Failure to do so can result in the
creation of the variable as an NV (rather than an IV) - with a resultant loss of
precision.
Calculating gradients for color transitions and the like
Math::Gradient is used to calculate smooth transitions between numerical
values (also known as a "Gradient"). I wrote this module mainly to mix
colours, but it probably has several other applications. Methods are
supported to handle both basic and multiple-point gradients, both with
scalars and arrays.
Fast functions to convert between number Bases
BaseCnv provides a few simple functions for converting between
arbitrary number bases. It is as fast as I currently know how
to make it (of course relying only on the lovely Perl). If you
would rather utilize an object syntax for number-base conversion,
please see Ken Williams's <Ken@Forum.Swarthmore.Edu> fine
Math::BaseCalc module.
