        The final <a class="link" href="../../policy.html" title="Chapter&#160;20.&#160;Policies: Controlling Precision, Error Handling etc">Policy</a> argument is optional and can
        be used to control the behaviour of the function: how it handles errors,
        what level of precision to use etc. Refer to the <a class="link" href="../../policy.html" title="Chapter&#160;20.&#160;Policies: Controlling Precision, Error Handling etc">policy

        it's quite easy for the intermediate terms to either overflow or underflow,
        even though the result is in fact perfectly representable.

<p>
        The function is even and symmetric in <span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span> and <span class="emphasis"><em>y</em></span>,
        so first take assume <span class="emphasis"><em>x,y &gt; 0</em></span> and <span class="emphasis"><em>x &gt;
        y</em></span> (we can permute the arguments if this is not the case).
      </p>
<p>
        Then if <span class="emphasis"><em>x * &#949; &gt;= y</em></span> we can simply return <span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span>.
