 @item gcd(x, y)
 Return the greatest common divisor of @var{x} and @var{y}. If both @var{x} and
 @var{y} are 0 or either or both are less than zero then behavior is undefined.
+
+@item if(x, y)
+Evaluate @var{x}, and if the result is non-zero return the result of
+the evaluation of @var{y}, return 0 otherwise.
+
+@item ifnot(x, y)
+Evaluate @var{x}, and if the result is zero return the result of the
+evaluation of @var{y}, return 0 otherwise.
+
+@item taylor(expr, x) taylor(expr, x, id)
+Evaluate a taylor series at x.
+expr represents the LD(id)-th derivates of f(x) at 0. If id is not specified
+then 0 is assumed.
+note, when you have the derivatives at y instead of 0
+taylor(expr, x-y) can be used
+When the series does not converge the results are undefined.
+
+@item root(expr, max)
+Finds x where f(x)=0 in the interval 0..max.
+f() must be continuous or the result is undefined.
