j0, j1, jn — Bessel functions of the first kind

  #include <math.h>
  double j0(double x);
  double j1(double x);
  double jn(int n, double x);

The j0/(), /j1/(), and /jn/() functions shall compute Bessel functions of /x of the first kind of orders 0, 1, and n, respectively.

An application wishing to check for error situations should set errno to zero and call feclearexcept/(FE_ALL_EXCEPT) before calling these functions. On return, if /errno is non-zero or /fetestexcept/(FE_INVALID | FE_DIVBYZERO | FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an error has occurred.

Upon successful completion, these functions shall return the relevant Bessel value of x of the first kind.

If the x argument is too large in magnitude, or the correct result would cause underflow, 0 shall be returned and a range error may occur.

If x is NaN, a NaN shall be returned.

These functions may fail if:

Range Error

The value of x was too large in magnitude, or an underflow occurred.

If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) is non-zero, then errno shall be set to [ERANGE]. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, then the underflow floating-point exception shall be raised.

No other errors shall occur.

The following sections are informative.

None.

On error, the expressions (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) and (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) are independent of each other, but at least one of them must be non-zero.

None.

None.
