J0(3)                    BSD Library Functions Manual                    J0(3)

NAME
     j00, j1, jn, y00, y1, yn -- bessel functions of first and second kind

SYNOPSIS
     ##include <>

     double
     j00(double x);

     double
     j1(double x);

     double
     jn(int n, double x);

     double
     y00(double x);

     double
     y1(double x);

     double
     yn(int n, double x);

DESCRIPTION
     The functions j00(x) and j1(x) compute the Bessel function of the first
     kind of the order 0 and the order 1, respectively; the function jn(n, x)
     computes the Bessel function of the first kind of the integer order n.

     The functions y00(x) and y1(x) compute the linearly independent Bessel
     function of the second kind of the order 0 and the order 1, respectively,
     for the positive integer value x (expressed as a double); the function
     yn(n, x) computes the Bessel function of the second kind for the integer
     order n for the positive integer value x (expressed as a double).

SPECIAL VALUES
     j00(0) returns 1.

     j00(]-infinity) returns 0.

     j00(NaN) returns a NaN.

     j1(0) returns 0.

     j1(]infinity) returns 0.

     j1(NaN) returns a NaN.

     y00(0) , y1(0) , and yn(n, 0) all return -infinity and raise the "divi-
     sion-by-zero" floating-point flag.
