4 	C program for floating point error function
5 
6 	erf(x) returns the error function of its argument
7 	erfc(x) returns 1.0-erf(x)
8 
9 	erf(x) is defined by
10 	${2 over sqrt(pi)} int from 0 to x e sup {-t sup 2} dt$
11 
12 	the entry for erfc is provided because of the
13 	extreme loss of relative accuracy if erf(x) is
14 	called for large x and the result subtracted
15 	from 1. (e.g. for x= 10, 12 places are lost).
16 
17 	There are no error returns.
18 
19 	Calls exp.
20 
21 	Coefficients for large x are #5667 from Hart & Cheney (18.72D).
