fresnel

Compute the Fresnel integrals S(x) and C(x).

The Fresnel integrals are defined as

Some sources define the Fresnel integrals using t2 for the argument of the sine and cosine. To get these functions, multiply the computed integrals by √(π/2) and multiply the argument x by √(2/π).

Installation

npm install @stdlib/math-base-special-fresnel

Usage

var fresnel = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-fresnel' );

fresnel( x )

Simultaneously computes the Fresnel integrals S(x) and C(x).

var v = fresnel( 0.0 );
// returns [ ~0.0, ~0.0 ]

v = fresnel( 1.0 );
// returns [ ~0.438, ~0.780 ]

v = fresnel( Infinity );
// returns [ ~0.5, ~0.5 ]

v = fresnel( -Infinity );
// returns [ ~-0.5, ~-0.5 ]

v = fresnel( NaN );
// returns [ NaN, NaN ]

fresnel.assign( x, out, stride, offset )

Simultaneously computes the Fresnel integrals S(x) and C(x) and assigns results to a provided output array.

var Float64Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float64' );

var out = new Float64Array( 2 );

var v = fresnel.assign( 0.0, out, 1, 0 );
// returns <Float64Array>[ ~0.0, ~0.0 ]

var bool = ( v === out );
// returns true

Examples

var linspace = require( '@stdlib/array-base-linspace' );
var fresnel = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-fresnel' );

var x = linspace( 0.0, 10.0, 100 );

var i;
for ( i = 0; i < x.length; i++ ) {
    console.log( fresnel( x[ i ] ) );
}

C APIs

Usage

#include "stdlib/math/base/special/fresnel.h"

stdlib_base_fresnel( x, &S, &C )

Simultaneously computes the Fresnel integrals S(x) and C(x).

double S;
double C;

stdlib_base_fresnel( 4.0, &S, &C );

The function accepts the following arguments:

• x: [in] double input value.
• S: [out] double* destination for S(x).
• C: [out] double* destination for C(x).

void stdlib_base_fresnel( const double x, double *S, double *C );

Examples

#include "stdlib/math/base/special/fresnel.h"
#include <stdio.h>

int main( void ) {
    const double x[] = { 0.0, 1.57, 3.14, 6.28 };

    double S;
    double C;
    int i;
    for ( i = 0; i < 4; i++ ) {
        stdlib_base_fresnel( x[ i ], &S, &C );
        printf( "x: %lf => S(x): %lf, C(x): %lf\n", x[ i ], S, C );
    }
}
