NAME
     erf, erff, erfl - error function

SYNOPSIS
     c99 [ flag... ] file... -lm [ library... ]
     #include 

     double erf(double x);


     float erff(float x);


     long double erfl(long double x);


DESCRIPTION
     These functions compute the error function of their argument
     x, defined as:

     2/sqrt(pi)*intregral from 0 to x of exp(-t*t) dt

RETURN VALUES
     Upon successful completion, these functions return the value
     of the error function.


     If x is NaN, a NaN is returned.


     If x is +_0, +_0 is returned.


     If x is +_Inf, +_1 is returned.


     If x is subnormal, 2/sqrt(pi) * 2 is returned.
