Description

Fermi-Dirac functions as per the Gnu Scientific Library, reference manual section 7.18. These functions are declared in header file gsl_sf_fermi_dirac.h

Usage

fermi_dirac_m1(x, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)
fermi_dirac_0(x, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)
fermi_dirac_1(x, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)
fermi_dirac_2(x, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)
fermi_dirac_int(j, x, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)
fermi_dirac_mhalf(x, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)
fermi_dirac_half(x, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)
fermi_dirac_3half(x, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)
fermi_dirac_inc_0(x, b, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)

Arguments

x,j,b

input: real values

give

Boolean with TRUE meaning to return a list of three items: the value, an estimate of the error, and a status number

strict

Boolean, with TRUE meaning to return NaN if status is an error
