Hmm, special means special, so peculiar or deemed important in some way. Special values for the power functions, squares, cubes, etc. are integer squares (01,4,9,16,...) and integer cubes (0,1,8,27,..). But special values for trig functions are the pi*fraction values that evaluate to algebraic values, like sin(pi/6)= 1/2 and cos(pi/6)= sqrt(3)/2 and tan(pi/4) =1 etc. Special values for logarithms would be log(1)=0, log(10)=1, log(100)=2 etc. There are special in some way.......

Explain more when you ask another question. But a special value is a number that has a special property, I think, like a square number,a cube number etc.

What do you mean by "special value"? I've never
heard of such a term in mathematics. What does
it refer to?

More info please. This isn't some universally understood term, such as "What is a prime number?". What's the context"
