◆ Hyp2f1()

Function Hyp2f1 ( A1 As  Double,
A2 As  Double,
B As  Double,
Z As  Double,
Optional Info As  Long 
)

Hypergeometric function 2F1(a1, a2; b; z) (Gaussian hypergeometric function)

Purpose
This routine computes the hypergeometric function 2F1(a1, a2; b; z).
2F1(a1, a2; b; z) = Σ(a1)k*(a2)k/(b)k * z^k/k! (k = 1 to ∞)
Returns
Double
2F1(a1, a2; b; z).
Parameters
[in]A1Argument a1.
[in]A2Argument a2.
[in]BArgument b.
[in]ZArgument z.
[out]Info(Optional)
= 0: Successful exit.
= -4: The argument Z had an illegal value. (Z is outside the addressed range)
= 1: The internally estimated relative error exceeds 1.0e-12, range error is reported to indicate the partial loss of precision.
= 1: Other floating point range error.
Note
  • z < -1 and z > 1 are not addressed except for some special cases.
  • The parameters a1, a2 and b ranging from -1 to 7 are tested (-7 to 7 for some special cases). It is recommended to use within this range.
  • The parameters a1, a2 and b are considered to be integer valued if they are within 1.0e-13 of the nearest integer.
