. This function does broadcast, but will not “up-cast” int dtype arguments unless accompanied by at least one float or complex dtype argument (see Raises below).

Parameters
xarray_like, dtype float or complex

Argument of the Bessel function.

Returns
outndarray, shape = x.shape, dtype = x.dtype

The modified Bessel function evaluated at each of the elements of x.

Raises
TypeError: array cannot be safely cast to required type

If argument consists exclusively of int dtypes.

Notes

The scipy implementation is recommended over this function: it is a proper ufunc written in C, and more than an order of magnitude faster.

We use the algorithm published by Clenshaw [1] and referenced by Abramowitz and Stegun [2], for which the function domain is partitioned into the two intervals [0,8] and (8,inf), and Chebyshev polynomial expansions are employed in each interval. Relative error on the domain [0,30] using IEEE arithmetic is documented [3] as having a peak of 5.8e-16 with an rms of 1.4e-16 (n = 30000).
