function   yn    

Library: ombessel - Bessel functions
Include: ombessel.xin
Return type: Opaque
Returns:       

A Bessel function of the second kind: order n. Returns NaN for values of x that are <= 0.


Declaration

  define external float function
       yn (value integer n, value float x)


Purpose

Use yn to calculate the Bessel function of the second kind (order n) for any value of x.

Example:

  include "ombessel.xin"
  process
     local integer x initial {2}
     local float y initial {17.5}
     local float yn-bessel
     set yn-bessel to yn (x, y)
     output "A yn Bessel function of the first kind, order "
         || "d" % x
         || ", of "
         || "d" % y
         || " = "
         || "d" % yn-bessel
         || "%n"
  ; Output: "A yn Bessel function of the first kind, order 2, of 17.5 = 0.171676655217493"
