Computes the complimentary error function for real arguments. The erfcx
function takes only a single argument
y = erfcx(x)
where x
is either a float
or double
array. The output
vector y
is the same size (and type) as x
.
The erfcx function is defined by the integral:
and is an exponentially weighted integral of the normal distribution.
Here is a plot of the erfcx
function over the range [-5,5]
.
--> x = linspace(0,5); --> y = erfcx(x); --> plot(x,y); xlabel('x'); ylabel('erfcx(x)');
which results in the following plot.
