Description

We would be interested to have the Faddeeva function available (erfcx for complex arguments) and would like to implement and then contribute it (as we will have a GSoC student).

So the questions

  • is there already any work done in this direction?
  • is that contribution to TFP possible? any specific ideas/requirements?
