Special functions
=================
``scipy``\ s ``special`` module defines several functions that behave
as do the standard mathematical functions of the ``numpy``, i.e., they
can be called on any scalar, scalar-valued iterable (ranges, lists,
tuples containing numbers), and on ``ndarray``\ s without having to
change the call signature. In all cases the functions return a new
``ndarray`` of typecode ``float`` (since these functions usually
generate float values, anyway).
At present, ``ulab``\ s ``special`` module contains the following
functions:
``erf``, ``erfc``, ``gamma``, and ``gammaln``, and they can be called by
prepending them by ``scipy.special.``.
.. code::
# code to be run in micropython
from ulab import numpy as np
from ulab import scipy as spy
a = range(9)
b = np.array(a)
print('a: ', a)
print(spy.special.erf(a))
print('\nb: ', b)
print(spy.special.erfc(b))
.. parsed-literal::
