ERF(3) BSD Library Functions Manual ERF(3)NAME
erf, erfc -- error function operators
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
double
erf(double x);
long double
erfl(long double x);
float
erff(float x);
double
erfc(double x);
long double
erfcl(long double x);
float
erfcf(float x);
DESCRIPTION
These functions calculate the error function of x.
The erf() function calculates the error function of x; where
erf(x) = 2/sqrt(pi)*integral from 0 to x of exp(-t*t) dt.
The erfc() function calculates the complementary error function of x; that is erfc() computes the difference of the error function erf(x)
from 1.0. This is useful, since for large x use of erfc() avoids loss of precision due to cancellation.
SPECIAL VALUES
erf(+-0) returns +-0.
erf(+-infinity) returns +-1.
erfc(-infinity) returns 2.
erfc(+infinity) returns +0.
SEE ALSO math(3)STANDARDS
The erf() and erfc() functions conform to ISO/IEC 9899:2011.

erfc(3M) Mathematical Library Functions erfc(3M)NAME
erfc, erfcf, erfcl - complementary error function
SYNOPSIS
c99 [ flag... ] file... -lm [ library... ]
#include <math.h>
double erfc(double x);
float erfcf(float x);
long double erfcl(long double x);
DESCRIPTION
These function compute the complementary error function 1.0 - erf(x).
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, these functions return the value of the complementary error function.
If x is NaN, a NaN is returned.
If x is +-0, +1 is returned.
If x is -Inf, +2 is returned.
If x is +Inf, 0 is returned.
ERRORS
No errors are defined.
USAGE
The erfc() function is provided because of the extreme loss of relative accuracy if erf(x) is called for large x and the result subtracted
from 1.0.

Hi,
i was using a input file to get the last line of the file.But now i have stored
the values from the file to a variable and want the last line from the variable . Slightly confused on how to extract that data from the variable.

Hi All, I will need an help with respect to replacing a range of columns on a non-delimited file using a particular string pattern.
