Bugs
There are errors of up to 2e-16 in the values returned by j0(), j1(), and jn() for values of x between -8
and 8.
Description
The j0() and j1() functions return Bessel functions of x of the first kind of orders 0 and 1,
respectively. The jn() function returns the Bessel function of x of the first kind of order n.
The j0f(), j1f(), and jnf(), functions are versions that take and return float values. The j0l(), j1l(),
and jnl() functions are versions that take and return longdouble values.
Errors
See math_error(7) for information on how to determine whether an error has occurred when calling these
functions.
The following errors can occur:
Range error: result underflow, or x is too large in magnitude
errno is set to ERANGE.
These functions do not raise exceptions for fetestexcept(3).

Name
j0, j0f, j0l, j1, j1f, j1l, jn, jnf, jnl - Bessel functions of the first kind
Return Value
On success, these functions return the appropriate Bessel value of the first kind for x.
If x is a NaN, a NaN is returned.
If x is too large in magnitude, or the result underflows, a range error occurs, and the return value is
0.
