DESCRIPTION
This package implements several so-called special functions, like the Gamma function, the Bessel
functions and such.
Each function is implemented by a procedure that bears its name (well, in close approximation):
• J0 for the zeroth-order Bessel function of the first kind
• J1 for the first-order Bessel function of the first kind
• Jn for the nth-order Bessel function of the first kind
• J1/2 for the half-order Bessel function of the first kind
• J-1/2 for the minus-half-order Bessel function of the first kind
• I_n for the modified Bessel function of the first kind of order n
• Gamma for the Gamma function, erf and erfc for the error function and the complementary error
function
• fresnel_C and fresnel_S for the Fresnel integrals
• elliptic_K and elliptic_E (complete elliptic integrals)
• exponent_Ei and other functions related to the so-called exponential integrals
• legendre, hermite: some of the classical orthogonal polynomials.
OVERVIEW
In the following table several characteristics of the functions in this package are summarized: the
domain for the argument, the values for the parameters and error bounds.

Note: Some of the error bounds are estimated, as no "formal" bounds were available with the imple-
mented approximation method, others hold for the auxiliary functions used for estimating the primary
functions.
The following well-known functions are currently missing from the package:
• Bessel functions of the second kind (Y_n, K_n)
• Bessel functions of arbitrary order (and hence the Airy functions)
• Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind (U_n)
• The digamma function (psi)
• The incomplete gamma and beta functions

THE ORTHOGONAL POLYNOMIALS
For dealing with the classical families of orthogonal polynomials, the package relies on the
math::polynomials package. To evaluate the polynomial at some coordinate, use the evalPolyn command:
set leg2 [::math::special::legendre 2]
puts "Value at x=$x: [::math::polynomials::evalPolyn $leg2 $x]"
The return value from the legendre and other commands is actually the definition of the corresponding
polynomial as used in that package.
REMARKS ON THE IMPLEMENTATION
It should be noted, that the actual implementation of J0 and J1 depends on straightforward Gaussian
quadrature formulas. The (absolute) accuracy of the results is of the order 1.0e-4 or better. The
main reason to implement them like that was that it was fast to do (the formulas are simple) and the
computations are fast too.
The implementation of J1/2 does not suffer from this: this function can be expressed exactly in terms
of elementary functions.
The functions J0 and J1 are the ones you will encounter most frequently in practice.
The computation of I_n is based on Miller's algorithm for computing the minimal function from recur-rence recurrence
rence relations.
The computation of the Gamma and Beta functions relies on the combinatorics package, whereas that of
the error functions relies on the statistics package.
The computation of the complete elliptic integrals uses the AGM algorithm.
