AK: Our pow implementation doesn't work for extreme exponentials
For example:
auto power = pow(10.0, -100.0);With our pow implementation, we seem to get:
power=0.00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000009999999999999994
Whereas on Linux, we correctly get:
power=0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001
This can all be tested on Linux as well, by forcing pow into AK:
printf("power=%.116f\n", pow(10.0, -100.0)); // Uses glibc
printf("power=%.116f\n", AK::pow(10.0, -100.0)); // Uses AK
