Implementation of 4 floating point operations: SQUARE, SQRT (SQuare RooT), Exponentiation (power, X^Y), e^X. I am using x87 floating point assembly language instructions. In the beginning I am giving a very brief intro regarding the x87 and 8087 floating point coprocessor instructions. Nowadays, these instructions are available in all x86 CPUs, internally, without an external coprocessor.
