Computes the value of the Laguerre and associated Laguerre polynomials of order n at x:
Defined in header
Parameters
n, m : integral positive arguments.x : real floating argument.Return value
The value of the polynomial at x is returned.
The expression successor(laguerre)(n, x, ln, lnm1) implements the three term recurrence relation for the Laguerre polynomials, \(\displaystyle \mbox{L}_{n+1} =
\left((2n+1-x)\mbox{L}_{n}-n\mbox{L}_{n-1}\right)/(n+1)\)
The expression successor(laguerre)(n, m, x, ln, lnmm1) implements the three term recurrence relation for the associated Laguerre polynomials, \(\displaystyle \mbox{L}_{n+1}^m =
\left((m+2n+1-x)\mbox{L}_{n}^{m}-(m+n)\mbox{L}_{n-1}^{m}\right)/(n+1)\)
These functions can be used to create a sequence of values evaluated at the same x (and m) and for rising n.
