# 9. 數值與數學模組

The modules described in this chapter provide numeric and math-related functions and data types. The `numbers` module defines an abstract hierarchy of numeric types. The `math` and `cmath` modules contain various mathematical functions for floating-point and complex numbers. The `decimal` module supports exact representations of decimal numbers, using arbitrary precision arithmetic.
