erfcf(3)

NAME

     erf, erff, erfc, erfcf -- error function operators


LIBRARY

     Math Library (libm, -lm)


SYNOPSIS

     #include <math.h>

     double
     erf(double x);

     float
     erff(float x);

     double
     erfc(double x);

     float
     erfcf(float x);


DESCRIPTION

     These functions calculate the error function of x.

     The erf() and the erff() functions calculate the error function of x;
     where

	   erf(x) = 2/sqrt(pi)*integral from 0 to x of exp(-t*t) dt.

     The erfc() and the erfcf() functions calculate the complementary error
     function of x; that is erfc() subtracts the result of the error function
     erf(x) from 1.0.  This is useful, since for large x places disappear.

HISTORY

     The erf() and erfc() functions appeared in 4.3BSD.
