This index lists routines in MATH/LIBRARY Special Functions by a tree-structured classification scheme known as GAMS. Boisvert, Howe, Kahaner, and Springmann (1990) give the GAMS classification scheme. The classification scheme given here is Version 2.0. The first level of the classification scheme is denoted by a letter A thru Z as follows:

A.            Arithmetic, Error Analysis

B.            Number Theory

C.            Elementary and Special Functions

D.            Linear Algebra

E.             Interpolation

F.             Solution of Nonlinear Equations

G.            Optimization

H.            Differentiation and Integration

I.              Differential and Integral Equations

J.             Integral Transforms

K.            Approximation

L.             Statistics, Probability

M.           Simulation, Stochastic Modeling

N.            Data Handling

O.            Symbolic Computation

P.             Computational Geometry

Q.            Graphics

R.            Service Routines

S.             Software Development Tools

Z.            Other

There are seven levels in the classification scheme. Subclasses for levels 3, 5, and 7 are denoted by letters “a” thru “w”. Subclasses for levels 2, 4, and 6 are denoted by the numbers 1 thru 23.

The index given in the following pages lists routines in MATH/LIBRARY Special Functions within each GAMS subclass. The purpose of the routine appear alongside the routine name.
