x\right), {\mathop{\mathrm{Ai}\/}\nolimits^{{\prime}}}\!\left(x\right)/\mathop{\mathrm{%
Ai}\/}\nolimits\!\left(x\right) for x=0(.1)25(1)75; \mathop{\mathrm{Bi}\/}\nolimits\!\left(x\right), {\mathop{\mathrm{Bi}\/}\nolimits^{{\prime}}}\!\left(x\right) for x=-10(.1)2.5; \mathop{\mathrm{log}_{{10}}\/}\nolimits\mathop{\mathrm{Bi}\/}\nolimits\!\left(%
x\right), {\mathop{\mathrm{Bi}\/}\nolimits^{{\prime}}}\!\left(x\right)/\mathop{\mathrm{%

Precision is generally 8D; slightly less for some of the auxiliary functions. Extracts from these tables are included in Abramowitz and Stegun (1964, Chapter 10), together with some auxiliary functions for large arguments.

Precision is 4D.

Precision is 8D. Here h_{1}(z)=-2^{{4/3}}3^{{1/6}}i\mathop{\mathrm{Ai}\/}\nolimits\!\left(e^{{-\pi i%
/3}}z\right), h_{2}(z)=2^{{4/3}}3^{{1/6}}i\mathop{\mathrm{Ai}\/}\nolimits\!\left(e^{{\pi i/3%

The entries in the columns headed \int_{0}^{x}\mathop{\mathrm{Ai}\/}\nolimits\!\left(-x\right)dx and \int_{0}^{x}\mathop{\mathrm{Bi}\/}\nolimits\!\left(-x\right)dx all have the wrong sign.
