PROLOG
       This  manual  page  is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux implementation of this interface
       may differ (consult the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the  interface
       may not be implemented on Linux.


NAME
       j0, j1, jn — Bessel functions of the first kind


SYNOPSIS
       #include <math.h>

       double j0(double x);
       double j1(double x);
       double jn(int n, double x);


DESCRIPTION
       The  j0(), j1(), and jn() functions shall compute Bessel functions of x of the first kind of orders 0, 1,
       and n, respectively.

       An  application  wishing  to  check  for  error  situations  should  set   errno   to   zero   and   call
       feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT)  before  calling  these  functions.  On  return,  if  errno  is  non-zero or
       fetestexcept(FE_INVALID | FE_DIVBYZERO | FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an error has occurred.


RETURN VALUE
       Upon successful completion, these functions shall return the relevant Bessel value  of  x  of  the  first
       kind.

       If  the  x  argument  is  too large in magnitude, or the correct result would cause underflow, 0 shall be
       returned and a range error may occur.

       If x is NaN, a NaN shall be returned.


ERRORS
       These functions may fail if:

       Range Error The value of x was too large in magnitude, or an underflow occurred.

                   If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) is non-zero, then  errno  shall  be
                   set  to [ERANGE].  If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero,
                   then the underflow floating-point exception shall be raised.

       No other errors shall occur.

       The following sections are informative.


EXAMPLES
       None.


APPLICATION USAGE
       On error, the expressions (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) and  (math_errhandling  &  MATH_ERREXCEPT)  are
       independent of each other, but at least one of them must be non-zero.


RATIONALE
       None.


FUTURE DIRECTIONS
       None.
