erfcx

go implementation of the scaled complementary error function

graph

    erfcx(x) is shown in blue, with the limits 2*exp(x*x) for negative x values and 
    (1/√π)(1/x) for large x values

Package erfcx provides the scaled complementary error function for float64.

This is a port of erfcx.c from libcerf-5.1 to go.

Original documentation

 Library libcerf:
   Compute complex error functions, based on a new implementation of
   Faddeeva's w_of_z. Also provide Dawson and Voigt functions.

 File erfcx.c:
   Compute erfcx(x) = exp(x^2) erfc(x) function, for real x,
   using a novel algorithm that is much faster than DERFC of SLATEC.
   This function is used in the computation of Faddeeva, Dawson, and
   other complex error functions.
