    §17.18 Methods of Computation
    The two main methods for computing basic hypergeometric functions are: (1) numerical summation of the defining series given in §§17.4(i) and 17.4(ii); (2) modular transformations. … Shanks (1955) applies such methods in several q -series problems; see Andrews et al. (1986).
