Abstract
Algorithm 644 computes all major Bessel functions of a complex argumen t and of nonnegative order. Single-precision routine CBESY and double- precision routine ZBESY are modified to reduce the computation time fo r the Y Bessel function by approximately 25% over a wide range of argu ments and orders. Quick check (driver) programs that exercise the pack age are also modified to make tests more meaningful over larger region s of the complex plane.
