function [ n_data, x, fx ] = ei_values ( n_data ) %*****************************************************************************80 % %% EI_VALUES returns some values of the exponential integral function EI(X). % % Definition: % % The exponential integral EI(X) has the formula: % % EI(X) = - integral ( -X <= T <= Infinity ) exp ( -T ) / T dT % % In Mathematica, the function can be evaluated by: % % ExpIntegralEi[x] % % Licensing: % % This code is distributed under the GNU LGPL license. % % Modified: % % 16 September 2004 % % Author: % % John Burkardt % % Reference: % % Milton Abramowitz and Irene Stegun, % Handbook of Mathematical Functions, % US Department of Commerce, 1964. % % Stephen Wolfram, % The Mathematica Book, % Fourth Edition, % Wolfram Media / Cambridge University Press, 1999. % % Parameters: % % Input/output, integer N_DATA.
