ERF(3)			 BSD Library Functions Manual			ERF(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.

SEE ALSO

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