function [ n_data, n, a, x, fx ] = laguerre_general_values ( n_data )

%*****************************************************************************80
%
%% LAGUERRE_GENERAL_VALUES returns some values of the generalized Laguerre function.
%
%  Discussion:
%
%    In Mathematica, the function can be evaluated by:
%
%      LaguerreL[n,a,x]
%
%    The functions satisfy the following differential equation:
%
%      X * Y'' + (ALPHA+1-X) * Y' + N * Y = 0
%
%    Function values can be generated by the recursion:
%
%      L(0,ALPHA)(X) = 1
%      L(1,ALPHA)(X) = 1+ALPHA-X
%
%      L(N,ALPHA)(X) = ( (2*N-1+ALPHA-X) * L(N-1,ALPHA)(X) 
%                     - (N-1+ALPHA) * L(N-2,ALPHA)(X) ) / N
%
%    The parameter ALPHA is required to be greater than -1.
%
%    For ALPHA = 0, the generalized Laguerre function L(N,ALPHA)(X)
%    is equal to the Laguerre polynomial L(N)(X).
%
%    For ALPHA integral, the generalized Laguerre function
%    L(N,ALPHA)(X) equals the associated Laguerre polynomial L(N,ALPHA)(X).

%
%  Parameters:
%
%    Input/output, integer N_DATA.  The user sets N_DATA to 0 before the
%    first call.  On each call, the routine increments N_DATA by 1, and
%    returns the corresponding data; when there is no more data, the
%    output value of N_DATA will be 0 again.
%
%    Output, integer N, the order of the function.
%
%    Output, real A, the parameter.
%
%    Output, real X, the point where the function is evaluated.
%
%    Output, real FX, the value of the function.
