13 	C program for floating point error function
14 
15 	erf(x) returns the error function of its argument
16 	erfc(x) returns 1.0-erf(x)
17 
18 	erf(x) is defined by
19 	${2 over sqrt(pi)} int from 0 to x e sup {-t sup 2} dt$
20 
21 	the entry for erfc is provided because of the
22 	extreme loss of relative accuracy if erf(x) is
23 	called for large x and the result subtracted
24 	from 1. (e.g. for x= 10, 12 places are lost).
25 
26 	There are no error returns.
27 
28 	Calls exp.
29 
30 	Coefficients for large x are #5667 from Hart & Cheney (18.72D).
