I believe the Boost.math toolkit mathematical constants are an extremely useful feature, yet it is extremely difficult to find. Every time I try to browse to it I try searching boost.org/libs, then try the math library page and cannot find the links at either of those locations.

Thanks to these helpful comments, John Maddock has reorganized the structure of all the Math documentation. A reorganised version draft is at https://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/math/libs/math/doc/html/index.html Table of Contents 1. Overview 2. Statistical Distributions and Functions 3. Special Functions 4. Floating Point Utilities 5. TR1 and C99 external "C" Functions 6. Mathematical Constants <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Constants now get a Page One billing! 7. Complex Number Functions 8. Quaternions 9. Octonions 10. Integer Utilities (Greatest Common Divisor and Least Common Multiple) 11. Internals (Series, Rationals and Continued Fractions, Root Finding, Function Minimization, Testing and Development Tools) <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< useful Root-Finding tools exposed to public view too 12. Use with User-Defined Floating-Point Types 13. Policies: Controlling Precision, Error Handling etc 14. Performance 15. Backgrounders 16. Library Status 17. Indexes Any feedback on this?
