Math.ScaleB documentation is incorrect.

Open Jabbl opened this issue 4 months ago • 3 comments

https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/pull/42476 seems to have moved ScaleB from a C-runtime call to a managed implementation.
The documentation, however, still has a remark that the underlying C runtime is called.

Since this is no longer the case, the remark should probably be removed.

I couldn't figure out the best area label to add to this issue. If you have write-permissions please help me learn by adding exactly one area label.

The exact remark should probably be something implying “may” rather than “does”.

There are many possible runtimes and a valid implementation of ScaleB may defer into the C runtime, be an intrinsic to the JIT/AOT, or rely on other behavior
