1: 31.18 Methods of Computation
The computation of the accessory parameter for the Heun functions is carried out via the continued-fraction equations (31.4.2) and (31.11.13) in the same way as for the Mathieu, Lamé, and spheroidal wave functions in Chapters 2830.

Higher coefficients can be found by equating powers of q in the following continued-fraction equation, with a = λ ν ( q ) :
28.15.2 a ν 2 q 2 a ( ν + 2 ) 2 q 2 a ( ν + 4 ) 2 = q 2 a ( ν 2 ) 2 q 2 a ( ν 4 ) 2 .
