  • Martín et al. (1992) provides two simple formulas for approximating Ai ( x ) to graphical accuracy, one for < x 0 , the other for 0 x < .

  • Moshier (1989, §6.14) provides minimax rational approximations for calculating Ai ( x ) , Ai ( x ) , Bi ( x ) , Bi ( x ) . They are in terms of the variable ζ , where ζ = 2 3 x 3 / 2 when x is positive, ζ = 2 3 ( x ) 3 / 2 when x is negative, and ζ = 0 when x = 0 . The approximations apply when 2 ζ < , that is, when 3 2 / 3 x < or < x 3 2 / 3 . The precision in the coefficients is 21S.

  • These expansions are for real arguments x and are supplied in sets of four for each function, corresponding to intervals < x a , a x 0 , 0 x b , b x < . …
  • Corless et al. (1992) describe a method of approximation based on subdividing into a triangular mesh, with values of Ai ( z ) , Ai ( z ) stored at the nodes. Ai ( z ) and Ai ( z ) are then computed from Taylor-series expansions centered at one of the nearest nodes. The Taylor coefficients are generated by recursion, starting from the stored values of Ai ( z ) , Ai ( z ) at the node. Similarly for Bi ( z ) , Bi ( z ) .

  • MacLeod (1994) supplies Chebyshev-series expansions to cover Gi ( x ) for 0 x < and Hi ( x ) for < x 0 . The Chebyshev coefficients are given to 20D.

    These constraints guarantee that the orthogonality only involves the integral x [ 0 , ) , as above. For other cases there may also be, in addition to a possible integral as in (18.30.10), a finite sum of discrete weights on the negative real x -axis each multiplied by the polynomial product evaluated at the corresponding values of x , as in (18.2.3). …
