=head1 NAME

Template::Plugin::Math - Plugin providing mathematical functions

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    [% USE Math %]

    [% Math.sqrt(9) %]

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The Math plugin provides numerous mathematical functions for use
within templates.

=head1 METHODS

C<Template::Plugin::Math> makes available the following functions from
the Perl core:

=over 4

=item abs

=item atan2

=item cos

=item exp

=item hex

=item int

=item log

=item oct

=item rand

=item sin

=item sqrt

=item srand

=back

In addition, if the L<Math::Trig> module can be loaded, the following
functions are also available:

=over 4

=item pi

=item tan

=item csc

=item cosec

=item sec

=item cot

=item cotan

=item asin

=item acos

=item atan

=item acsc

=item acosec

=item asec

=item acot

=item acotan

=item sinh

=item cosh

=item tanh

=item csch

=item cosech

=item sech

=item coth

=item cotanh

=item asinh

=item acosh

=item atanh

=item acsch

=item acosech

=item asech

=item acoth

=item acotanh

=item rad2deg

=item rad2grad

=item deg2rad

=item deg2grad

=item grad2rad

=item grad2deg

=back

If the L<Math::TrulyRandom> module is available, and you've got the time
to wait, the C<truly_random_number> method is available:

    [% Math.truly_random_number %]
