 ### Changed
 - Move magic methods (`__radd__`, `__sub__`, `__rsub__`, `__rmul__`, `__richcmp__`, `__neg__`, and `__rtruediv__`) to `ExprLike` base class (#1204)
 - Speed up `Expr.__add__` and `Expr.__iadd__` via the C-level API
+- Replace Python math with C-level math functions and refactor unary expressions.
 ### Removed

 # Modifying the expression directly would be a bug, given that the expression might be re-used by the user. </pre>
