§19.38 Approximations
Minimax polynomial approximations3.11(i)) for K ( k ) and E ( k ) in terms of m = k 2 with 0 m < 1 can be found in Abramowitz and Stegun (1964, §17.3) with maximum absolute errors ranging from 4×10⁻⁵ to 2×10⁻⁸. Approximations of the same type for K ( k ) and E ( k ) for 0 < k 1 are given in Cody (1965a) with maximum absolute errors ranging from 4×10⁻⁵ to 4×10⁻¹⁸. … Approximations for Legendre’s complete or incomplete integrals of all three kinds, derived by Padé approximation of the square root in the integrand, are given in Luke (1968, 1970). …The accuracy is controlled by the number of terms retained in the approximation; for real variables the number of significant figures appears to be roughly twice the number of terms retained, perhaps even for ϕ near π / 2 with the improvements made in the 1970 reference. …
13: 3.8 Nonlinear Equations
For real functions f ( x ) the sequence of approximations to a real zero ξ will always converge (and converge quadratically) if either: … Inverse linear interpolation (§3.3(v)) is used to obtain the first approximation: … Initial approximations to the zeros can often be found from asymptotic or other approximations to f ( z ) , or by application of the phase principle or Rouché’s theorem; see §1.10(iv). … Consider x = 20 and j = 19 . We have p ( 20 ) = 19 ! and a 19 = 1 + 2 + + 20 = 210 . …

Barrett’s Expansions
It is stated that corresponding uniform approximations can be obtained for other solutions, including the eigensolutions, of the differential equations by application of the results, but these approximations are not included.

The uniform asymptotic approximations given in §14.15 for P ν μ ( x ) and 𝑸 ν μ ( x ) for 1 < x < are extended to domains in the complex plane in the following references: §§14.15(i) and 14.15(ii), Dunster (2003b); §14.15(iii), Olver (1997b, Chapter 12); §14.15(iv), Boyd and Dunster (1986). … See also Frenzen (1990), Gil et al. (2000), Shivakumar and Wong (1988), Ursell (1984), and Wong (1989) for uniform asymptotic approximations obtained from integral representations.
