airyprime

airyprime(x)

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

Examples

In the Julia programming language, the function airyprime(x) calculates the derivative of the Airy function Ai'(x) at the given value x.

julia> airyprime(1.0)
-0.1564900486413998

Here are some common examples of how to use the airyprime function:

1. Calculate the derivative at a specific point:

   julia> airyprime(2.0)
   -0.01921471959676957

   This example calculates the derivative of the Airy function Ai'(x) at x = 2.0.

2. Evaluate the derivative for an array of values:

   julia> x = [0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0];
   julia> airyprime.(x)
   4-element Array{Float64,1}:
   0.10399738949694474
   -0.1564900486413998
   -0.2534802279558991
   -0.01921471959676957

   In this case, the airyprime function is applied element-wise to the array x, calculating the derivative for each value.

Common mistake example:

julia> airyprime("hello")
ERROR: MethodError: no method matching airyprime(::String)

In this example, the function is called with an invalid argument type. The airyprime function expects a numeric input, so passing a string results in a MethodError. Make sure to provide valid numeric arguments when using airyprime.
