w_of_z, im_w_of_x - Faddeeva's rescaled complex error function

       Steven G. Johnson [http://math.mit.edu/~stevenj],
         Massachusetts Institute of Technology,
         researched the numerics, and implemented the Faddeeva function.

       Joachim Wuttke <j.wuttke@fz-juelich.de>, Forschungszentrum Juelich,
         reorganized the code into a library, and wrote this man page.

       Faddeeva's rescaled complex error function w(z), also called the plasma dispersion function.

       w_of_z returns w(z) = exp(-z^2) * erfc(-i*z).

       im_w_of_x returns Im[w(x)].

       w_of_z, im_w_of_x - Faddeeva's rescaled complex error function

       To compute w(z), a combination of two algorithms is used:

       For sufficiently large |z|, a continued-fraction expansion similar to those described by Gautschi (1970)
       and Poppe & Wijers (1990).

       Otherwise, Algorithm 916 by Zaghloul & Ali (2011), which is generally competitive at small |z|, and more
       accurate than the Poppe & Wijers expansion in some regions, e.g. in the vicinity of z=1+i.

       To compute Im[w(x)], Chebyshev polynomials and continous fractions are used.

       This function is used within liberfc to compute several other complex error functions:

       dawson(3), voigt(3), cerf(3), erfcx(3), erfi(3).
