| function | jn | 
| Library: Bessel functions (OMBESSEL legacy) Include: ombessel.xin | Return type: opaque Returns: A Bessel function of the first kind: order n. | 
define external float function
     jn (value integer n, value float x)
Use jn to calculate the Bessel function of the first kind (order n) for any value of x.
Example:
  include "ombessel.xin"
  process
     local integer x initial {2}
     local float y initial {17.5}   
     local float jn-bessel
     set jn-bessel to jn (x, y)
     output "A jn Bessel function of the first kind, order "
         || "d" % x
         || ", of "
         || "d" % y
         || " = "
         || "d" % jn-bessel
         || "%n"
  ; Output: "A jn Bessel function of the first kind, order 2, of 17.5 = 0.084433830294314"
