Airy Functions
• Ai(z)—Returns the value of the Airy function of the first kind.
• DAi(z)—Returns the value of the first derivative of Ai(z).
• Bi(z)—Returns the value of the Airy function of the second kind.
• DBi(z)—Returns the value of the first derivative of Bi(z).
The scaled Ai and DAi functions have a scale factor of e(2/3)*z(3/2)). The scaled Bi and DBi functions have a scale factor of e-|(2/3)*Re(z(3/2))|. Type sc as a literal subscript after the function name to specify the scaled function Aisc(z).
These functions, and their scaled versions, can be evaluated both numerically and symbolically.
Arguments
• z is a dimensionless complex scalar or vector.
