Fonction ker - module scipy.special

Signature de la fonction ker

Description

ker.__doc__

ker(x, /, out=None, *, where=True, casting='same_kind', order='K', dtype=None, subok=True[, signature, extobj])

ker(x, out=None)

Kelvin function ker.

Defined as

.. math::

    \mathrm{ker}(x) = \Re[K_0(x e^{\pi i / 4})]

Where :math:`K_0` is the modified Bessel function of the second
kind (see `kv`). See [dlmf]_ for more details.

Parameters
----------
x : array_like
    Real argument.
out : ndarray, optional
    Optional output array for the function results.

See Also
--------
kei : the corresponding imaginary part
kerp : the derivative of ker
kv : modified Bessel function of the second kind

Returns
-------
scalar or ndarray
    Values of the Kelvin function.

Examples
--------
It can be expressed using the modified Bessel function of the
second kind.
