§10.76(i) Introduction

Because of the comprehensive nature of more recent software packages (§10.77), the following subsections include only references that give representative examples of the kind of approximations that can be used to generate the functions that appear in the present chapter. For references to other approximations, see, for example, Luke (1975, §9.13.3).
