NAME
       erf, erff, erfl - error function

SYNOPSIS
       cc [ flag... ] file... -lm [ library... ]
       #include <math.h>

       double erf(double x);

       float erff(float x);

       long double erfl(long double x);

DESCRIPTION
       These functions compute the error function of their argument x, defined as:

       2/sqrt(pi)(**|integral from 0 to x of exp(-t(**t) dt

       Equation that computes error function of x.

RETURN VALUES
       Upon successful completion, these functions return the value of the error function.

       If x is NaN, a NaN is returned.

       If x is +-0, +-0 is returned.

       If x is +-Inf, +-1 is returned.

       If x is subnormal, 2/sqrt() * 2 is returned.
