About stdlib...

We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.

The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.

When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.

To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

fresnel

NPM version Build Status Coverage Status

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

The Fresnel integrals are defined as

Fresnel integral

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 ] ) );
}
