R: Fermi-Dirac functions

Fermi-Dirac {gsl} | R Documentation

## Fermi-Dirac functions

### Description

Fermi-Dirac functions as per the Gnu Scientific Library, reference manual section 7.18. These functions are declared in header file `gsl_sf_fermi_dirac.h`

### Usage

    fermi_dirac_m1(x, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)
    fermi_dirac_0(x, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)
    fermi_dirac_1(x, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)
    fermi_dirac_2(x, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)
    fermi_dirac_int(j, x, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)
    fermi_dirac_mhalf(x, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)
    fermi_dirac_half(x, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)
    fermi_dirac_3half(x, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)
    fermi_dirac_inc_0(x, b, give=FALSE, strict=TRUE)

### Arguments

`x,j,b` | input: real values
`give` | Boolean with `TRUE` meaning to return a list of three items: the value, an estimate of the error, and a status number
`strict` | Boolean, with `TRUE` meaning to return `NaN` if status is an error
