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
cc [ 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.

Guys,
I have two big numbers to multiply. In doing do I am getting integer overflow.
I managed to multiply number but this number is useless as KSh does not recognise it as
a valid number. Here is what I am doing

I got the right value by doing... (2 Replies)
is /. superfluous? why not just say / ?
I can see a use for . on its own. But /. seems superfluous/redundant.
I'm guessing it must have some good reason, there's a whole website named after it!! (5 Replies)
I have the following expression:

Hey,
Success!
I have converted the posts (each of the main posts) from table tags to div tags and the problem with the scroll bar and code tags is fixed, as I predicted (Yay!).
Now I'm testing this (only I see the new results because the new code is restricted to my userid) but I would... (27 Replies)
YAY!
Finally, seems like forever, I added this CSS to the posts (postbit) for table columns and scrollbars work still do not work for code tags and text inside posts.

overflow: auto;
white-space: nowrap;
}
