y0(3M) y0(3M)
NAME
y0( ), y1( ), yn( ) - Bessel functions of the second kind
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
double y0(double x);
double y1(double x);
double yn(int n, double x);
DESCRIPTION
y0() and y1() return the Bessel functions of x of the second kind of orders 0 and 1 respectively.
yn()
returns the Bessel function of x of the second kind of order n. The value of x must be greater than zero.
USAGE
To use these functions, compile either with the default
-Ae option or with the -Aa and
-D_HPUX_SOURCE
options. Make sure your program includes <math.h>. Link in the math library by
specifying
-lm on the compiler or linker command line.
RETURN VALUE
If x is negative or zero,
y0(), y1(), and yn() return −HUGE_VAL (equal to −INFINITY)
If x is NaN,
y0(), y1(), and yn() return NaN.
If the correct result would overflow,
y0(), y1(), and yn() return −HUGE_VAL
.
ERRORS
No errors are defined.
