1//! Error function and related functions
2//!
3//! This module provides comprehensive implementations of the error function (erf),
4//! complementary error function (erfc), and their inverses (erfinv, erfcinv).
5//!
6//! ## Mathematical Theory
7//!
8//! ### The Error Function
9//!
10//! The error function is a fundamental special function that arises naturally in
11//! probability theory, statistics, and the theory of partial differential equations.
12//!
13//! **Definition**:
14//! ```text
15//! erf(x) = (2/√π) ∫₀^x e^(-t²) dt
16//! ```
17//!
18//! This integral cannot be expressed in terms of elementary functions, making the
19//! error function a truly "special" function.
20//!
21//! **Fundamental Properties**:
22//!
23//! 1. **Odd function**: erf(-x) = -erf(x)
24//! - **Proof**: Direct from definition by substitution u = -t
25//! - **Consequence**: erf(0) = 0
26//!
27//! 2. **Asymptotic limits**:
28//! - lim_{x→∞} erf(x) = 1
29//! - lim_{x→-∞} erf(x) = -1
30//! - **Proof**: The integral ∫₀^∞ e^(-t²) dt = √π/2 (Gaussian integral)
31//!
32//! 3. **Monotonicity**: erf'(x) = (2/√π) e^(-x²) > 0 for all x
33//! - **Consequence**: erf(x) is strictly increasing
34//!
35//! 4. **Inflection points**: erf''(x) = 0 at x = ±1/√2
36//! - **Proof**: erf''(x) = -(4x/√π) e^(-x²), zeros at x = 0 and ±∞
37//!
38//! ### Series Representations
39//!
40//! **Taylor Series** (converges for all x):
41//! ```text
42//! erf(x) = (2/√π) Σ_{n=0}^∞ [(-1)ⁿ x^(2n+1)] / [n! (2n+1)]
43//! = (2/√π) [x - x³/3 + x⁵/(2!·5) - x⁷/(3!·7) + ...]
44//! ```
45//!
46//! **Asymptotic Series** (for large |x|):
47//! ```text
48//! erfc(x) ~ (e^(-x²))/(x√π) [1 - 1/(2x²) + 3/(4x⁴) - 15/(8x⁶) + ...]
49//! ```
50//!
51//! ### Relationship to Normal Distribution
52//!
53//! The error function is intimately connected to the cumulative distribution
54//! function (CDF) of the standard normal distribution:
55//!
56//! ```text
57//! Φ(x) = (1/2)[1 + erf(x/√2)]
58//! ```
59//!
60//! where Φ(x) is the standard normal CDF.
61//!
62//! ### Complementary Error Function
63//!
64//! **Definition**:
65//! ```text
66//! erfc(x) = 1 - erf(x) = (2/√π) ∫_x^∞ e^(-t²) dt
67//! ```
68//!
69//! **Key Properties**:
70//! - erfc(-x) = 2 - erfc(x) (not odd like erf)
71//! - erfc(0) = 1
72//! - erfc(∞) = 0, erfc(-∞) = 2
73//! - More numerically stable than 1-erf(x) for large x
74//!
75//! ### Computational Methods
76//!
77//! This implementation uses different methods depending on the input range:
78//!
79//! 1. **Direct series expansion** for small |x| (typically |x| < 2)
80//! 2. **Abramowitz & Stegun approximation** for moderate x values
81//! 3. **Asymptotic expansion** for large |x| to avoid numerical cancellation
82//! 4. **Rational approximations** for optimal balance of speed and accuracy
83//!
84//! ### Applications
85//!
86//! The error function appears in numerous fields:
87//! - **Statistics**: Normal distribution calculations
88//! - **Physics**: Diffusion processes, heat conduction
89//! - **Engineering**: Signal processing, communications theory
90//! - **Mathematics**: Solutions to the heat equation

873///
874/// **Mathematical Properties**:

876/// 1. **Odd function**: D(-x) = -D(x)
877/// 2. **Relation to error function**: D(x) = (√π/2) exp(-x²) Im[erf(ix)]

879/// - For small x: D(x) ≈ x
880/// - For large x: D(x) ≈ 1/(2x)
881///
882/// **Physical Applications**:

1075/// Faddeeva function: wofz(z) = exp(-z²) * erfc(-i*z)
1076///
1077/// The Faddeeva function is defined as:
1078/// wofz(z) = exp(-z²) * erfc(-i*z)
1079///
1080/// For real arguments, this simplifies to a real-valued function.
1081///
1082/// # Arguments
1083///
1084/// * `x` - Input value (real)
1085///
1086/// # Returns
1087///
1088/// * `f64` - wofz(x) for real x
1089///
1090/// # Examples
1091///
1092/// ```
1093/// use scirs2_special::wofz;
1094///
1095/// // wofz(0) = 1
1096/// assert!((wofz(0.0) - 1.0f64).abs() < 1e-10);
1097/// ```
