26.9 Mathematical functions for floating-point types [c.math]

26.9.5 Mathematical special functions [sf.cmath]

26.9.5.8 Cylindrical Bessel functions (of the first kind) [sf.cmath.cyl_bessel_j]

double cyl_bessel_j(double nu, double x); float cyl_bessel_jf(float nu, float x); long double cyl_bessel_jl(long double nu, long double x);

Effects: These functions compute the cylindrical Bessel functions of the first kind of their respective arguments nu and x.

Returns: \[%
  \mathsf{J}_\nu(x) =
  \sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac{(-1)^k (x/2)^{\nu+2k}}
			 {k! \: \Gamma(\nu+k+1)},
	   \quad \mbox{for $x \ge 0$}
\] where nu is nu and x is x.

Remarks: The effect of calling each of these functions is implementation-defined if nu >= 128.
