# Change Log: 2.051

Download D 2.051
released Dec 21, 2010

#### New/Changed Features

- Added std.mathspecial, containing mathematical Special Functions
- std.base64: Replaced. Boost License, Performance improvement, Range support. Function signature changed from 'encode' to 'Base64.encode'
- std.math: D implementation of pow. Almost all std.math functions are now @safe pure nothrow. tgamma, lgamma, erf, erfc have been moved to std.mathspecial
- std.exception: Added pure and nothrow to assumeUnique
- std.utf: Removed UtfError class and toUTF* shortcut functions for validation. Added pure, nothrow, @safe and @trusted attributes. count function supports dchar
- Both druntime and phobos now build successfully with dmd -m64. Still somewhat behind dmd1, very little executes correctly still.
