j0

function

Library: Bessel functions (OMBESSEL legacy)
Include: ombessel.xin

Returns: a Bessel function of the first kind: order 0

Declaration

define external float function
     j0 value float x

Purpose

Use j0 to calculate the Bessel function of the first kind (order 0) for any value of x.

Example:

  include "ombessel.xin"
  process
     local float x initial {17.5}
     local float j0-bessel
     set j0-bessel to j0 (x)
     output "A j0 Bessel function of "
         || "d" % x
         || " = "
         || "d" % j0-bessel
         || "%n"
  ; Output: "A j0 Bessel function of 17.5 = -0.103110398228686"
