Both gamma() and normalized_ligamma() can // be called with an _impl suffix to use an implementation version with a few // extra precomputed parameters (which may be useful for the caller to reuse). // See below for details. // // Design Rationale: // Pretty much every line of code in this file is duplicated four times for // different input types (float4/float3/float2/float). This is unfortunate, // but Cg doesn't allow function templates. Macros would be far less verbose, // but they would make the code harder to document and read. I don't expect // these functions will require a whole lot of maintenance changes unless // someone ever has need for more robust incomplete gamma functions, so code // duplication seems to be the lesser evil in this case. /////////////////////////// GAUSSIAN ERROR FUNCTION ////////////////////////// float4 erf6(float4 x) { // Requires: x is the standard parameter to erf(). // Returns: Return an Abramowitz/Stegun approximation of erf(), where: // erf(x) = 2/sqrt(pi) * integral(e**(-x**2)) // This approximation has a max absolute error of 2.5*10**-5 // with solid numerical robustness and efficiency.
