Title
Rational approximations, software and test methods for sine and cosine integrals
Abstract
Rational approximations to the sine integralSi(x) and cosine-integralCi(x) are developed which give an accuracy of 20sf. The robust construction of software for these functions is discussed, together with a test procedure for assessing the performance of such codes. Use of the tests discovers a major error in the netlib library FN codes forSi. Fortran versions of the codes and tests are available by electronic mail.
