airyai

airyai(x)

Airy function $\operatorname{Ai}(x)$.

Examples

In the Julia programming language, the function airyai(x) calculates the Airy function Ai(x).

julia> airyai(1.0)
0.13529241631288188

Here are some examples of how to use the airyai function:

1. Calculate the Airy function at a specific value:

   julia> airyai(2.5)
   -0.14415765226945194

   This example calculates the value of the Airy function Ai(2.5).

2. Evaluate the Airy function for negative arguments:

   julia> airyai(-0.5)
   0.40141306234327373

   The airyai function can be used to compute the Airy function for negative values as well.

3. Vectorized computation of the Airy function:

   julia> x = [-1.0, 0.0, 1.0, 2.0];
   julia> airyai.(x)
   4-element Array{Float64,1}:
   0.5355608832923527
   0.0
   -0.13529241631288188
   -0.14415765226945194

   The airyai function supports vectorized computation, allowing you to pass an array of values and obtain the corresponding Airy function values.

Common mistake example:

julia> airyai("abc")
ERROR: MethodError: no method matching airyai(::String)

In this example, the airyai function is called with a string argument ("abc"). The airyai function only accepts numeric arguments, so passing a string will result in a MethodError. Ensure that you provide valid numerical inputs when using the airyai function.
