35- [Upgrade to 2018 edition, **MSRV 1.31**][240]

37  representations of a value, with little, big, and native-endian options.
38- [The new `Float::is_subnormal` method checks for subnormal values][279], with
39  a non-zero magnitude that is less than the normal minimum positive value.
40- Several other improvements to documentation and testing.

49# Release 0.2.15 (2022-05-02)
50
51- [The new `Euclid` trait calculates Euclidean division][195], where the
52  remainder is always positive or zero.
53- [The new `LowerBounded` and `UpperBounded` traits][210] separately describe
54  types with lower and upper bounds. These traits are automatically implemented
55  for all fully-`Bounded` types.
56- [The new `Float::copysign` method copies the sign of the argument][207] to
57  to the magnitude of `self`.
58- [The new `PrimInt::leading_ones` and `trailing_ones` methods][205] are the
59  complement of the existing methods that count zero bits.
60- [The new `PrimInt::reverse_bits` method reverses the order of all bits][202]
61  of a primitive integer.
62- [Improved `Num::from_str_radix` for floats][201], also [ignoring case][214].
63- [`Float` and `FloatCore` use more from `libm`][196] when that is enabled.

83# Release 0.2.13 (2020-10-29)
84
85- [The new `OverflowingAdd`, `OverflowingSub`, and `OverflowingMul` traits][180]
86  return a tuple with the operation result and a `bool` indicating overflow.
87- [The "i128" feature now overrides compiler probes for that support][185].
88  This may fix scenarios where `autocfg` probing doesn't work properly.
89- [Casts from large `f64` values to `f32` now saturate to infinity][186]. They
90  previously returned `None` because that was once thought to be undefined
91  behavior, but [rust#15536] resolved that such casts are fine.
92- [`Num::from_str_radix` documents requirements for radix support][192], which
93  are now more relaxed than previously implied. It is suggested to accept at
94  least `2..=36` without panicking, but `Err` may be returned otherwise.

104# Release 0.2.12 (2020-06-11)
105
106- [The new `WrappingNeg` trait][153] will wrap the result if it exceeds the
107  boundary of the type, e.g. `i32::MIN.wrapping_neg() == i32::MIN`.
108- [The new `SaturatingAdd`, `SaturatingSub`, and `SaturatingMul` traits][165]
109  will saturate at the numeric bounds if the operation would overflow. These
110  soft-deprecate the existing `Saturating` trait that only has addition and
111  subtraction methods.
112- [Added new constants for logarithms, `FloatConst::{LOG10_2, LOG2_10}`][171].

140- [A new optional `libm` dependency][99] enables the `Float` and `Real` traits
141  in `no_std` builds.
142- [The new `clamp_min` and `clamp_max`][122] limit minimum and maximum values
143  while preserving input `NAN`s.
144- [Fixed a panic in floating point `from_str_radix` on invalid signs][126].
145- Miscellaneous documentation updates.

177- [Documented that `pow(0, 0)` returns `1`][79].  Mathematically, this is not
178  strictly defined, but the current behavior is a pragmatic choice that has
179  precedent in Rust `core` for the primitives and in many other languages.
180- [The new `WrappingShl` and `WrappingShr` traits][81] will wrap the shift count
181  if it exceeds the bit size of the type.

200- [Support for 128-bit integers is now automatically detected and enabled.][69]
201  Setting the `i128` crate feature now causes the build script to panic if such
202  support is not detected.

209
210- [The new `CheckedNeg` and `CheckedRem` traits][63] perform checked `Neg` and
211  `Rem`, returning `Some(output)` or `None` on overflow.
212- [The `no_std` implementation of `FloatCore::to_degrees` for `f32`][61] now
213  uses a constant for greater accuracy, mirroring [rust#47919].  (With `std` it
214  just calls the inherent `f32::to_degrees` in the standard library.)
215- [The new `MulAdd` and `MulAddAssign` traits][59] perform a fused multiply-
216  add.  For integer types this is just a convenience, but for floating point
217  types this produces a more accurate result than the separate operations.
218- [All applicable traits are now implemented for 128-bit integers][60] starting
219  with Rust 1.26, enabled by the new `i128` crate feature.  The `FromPrimitive`
220  and `ToPrimitive` traits now also have corresponding 128-bit methods, which
221  default to converting via 64-bit integers for compatibility.

232
233- [Casting from floating point to integers now returns `None` on overflow][52],
234  avoiding [rustc's undefined behavior][rust-10184]. This applies to the `cast`
235  function and the traits `NumCast`, `FromPrimitive`, and `ToPrimitive`.

243# Release 0.2.1 (2018-03-01)
244
245- [The new `FloatCore` trait][32] offers a subset of `Float` for `#![no_std]` use.
246  [This includes everything][41] except the transcendental functions and FMA.
247- [The new `Inv` trait][37] returns the multiplicative inverse, or reciprocal.
248- [The new `Pow` trait][37] performs exponentiation, much like the existing `pow`
249  function, but with generic exponent types.
250- [The new `One::is_one` method][39] tests if a value equals 1.  Implementers
251  should override this method if there's a more efficient way to check for 1,
252  rather than comparing with a temporary `one()`.

262# Release 0.2.0 (2018-02-06)
263
264- **breaking change**: [There is now a `std` feature][30], enabled by default, along
265  with the implication that building *without* this feature makes this a
266  `#![no_std]` crate.
267  - The `Float` and `Real` traits are only available when `std` is enabled.
268  - Otherwise, the API is unchanged, and num-traits 0.1.43 now re-exports its
269    items from num-traits 0.2 for compatibility (the [semver-trick]).

287- [`ParseFloatError` now implements `Display`][22].
288- [The new `AsPrimitive` trait][17] implements generic casting with the `as` operator.
289- [The new `CheckedShl` and `CheckedShr` traits][21] implement generic
290  support for the `checked_shl` and `checked_shr` methods on primitive integers.
291- [The new `Real` trait][23] offers a subset of `Float` functionality that may be applicable to more
292  types, with a blanket implementation for all existing `T: Float` types.
