In gsl: Wrapper for the Gnu Scientific Library

Laguerre functions

Description

Laguerre functions as per the Gnu Scientific Library reference manual section 7.22. These functions are declared in header file gsl_sf_laguerre.h

Usage

laguerre_1(a, x, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)
laguerre_2(a, x, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)
laguerre_3(a, x, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)
laguerre_n(n, a, x, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)

Arguments

a,x	input: real values
n	input: integer values
give	Boolean with TRUE meaning to return a list of three items: the value, an estimate of the error, and a status number
strict	Boolean, with TRUE meaning to return NaN if status is an error
