The classes provided here do not easily fit into a single category; in essence, these are tools that the author of the acovea package has found useful in a variety of applications.

among the algorithms included:

- a polymorphic collection of the best pseudorandom number generators,
including the mersenne twister and marsaglia's favorites.
- utilities for working with real numbers, including additional functions
for trigonometry, least common multiple, greatest common denominator,
rounding, and other purposes.
- a simple cross-platform command-line parser.
- a framework for generating rectangular mazes.
- a template for fixed-point math based on different integer sizes and
decimal point locations.
- templatized sorting utilities (designed before standard c++'s use
of , but still useful).
- validation tools for "design by contract" programming.
