8.26 BESSEL_JN — Bessel function of the first kind

Description:
BESSEL_JN(N, X) computes the Bessel function of the first kind of order N of X. This function is available under the name BESJN as a GNU extension.

If both arguments are arrays, their ranks and shapes shall conform.

Standard:
Fortran 2008 and later
Class:
Elemental function
Syntax:
RESULT = BESSEL_JN(N, X)
Arguments:

N Shall be a scalar or an array of type INTEGER.
X Shall be a scalar or an array of type REAL.

Return value:
The return value is a scalar of type REAL. It has the same kind as X.
Example:
          program test_besjn
            real(8) :: x = 1.0_8
            x = bessel_jn(5,x)
          end program test_besjn
