kelvin_bei0_derivative
Evaluates the derivative of the Kelvin function of the first kind, bei, of order zero.
Synopsis
#include <imsl.h>
float imsl_f_kelvin_bei0_derivative (float x)
The type double function is imsl_d_kelvin_bei0_derivative.
Required Arguments
float x (Input)
Argument for which the function value is desired.
Return Value
The derivative of the Kelvin function of the first kind, bei, of order zero evaluated at x.
Description
The function bei0(x) is defined to be
The function imsl_f_kelvin_bei0_derivative is based on the work of Burgoyne (1963). If |x| > 119, NaN is returned.
Example
In this example, bei0(0.6) is evaluated.
 
#include <imsl.h>
#include <stdio.h>
 
int main()
{
float x = 0.6;
float ans;
 
x = imsl_f_kelvin_bei0_derivative (x);
printf ("bei0’(0.6) = %f\n", x);
}
Output
 
bei0’(0.6) = 0.299798
