LeGendre function of the second kind, degree one.
 
Loading        LOADSUB ALL FROM "LEGENDRE.HTS"
or LOADSUB FROM "MATHLIB.HTS"
 
Usage                INTEGER N
REAL X,Y
Y=FNQ1n(N,X)
 
Description                
FNQ1n returns the value of the Legendre function of the second kind, degree one, and order n of x, Qn1(x). N must be positive or zero.
 
Errors                
FNQ1n causes an HTBasic error if its arguments are not of the types listed in the usage section, above, or if the polynomial's absolute value would be larger than MAXREAL, the largest value representable.

Note
For n > 2, the algorithm used computes the value of Qn1 using a recursion from the values of Q11 and Q21. The computation time increases with n-1 and the computation accuracy decreases with n-1.
