Description
            
Purpose
--------

The goal of this toolbox is to provide special functions.
The toolbox is based on macros.

Features
--------

The following is a list of the current features: 

 * specfun_expm1 : Compute exp(x)-1 accurately for small values of x.
 * specfun_gammainc : The incomplete gamma function.
 * specfun_lambertw : The Lambert W-Function.
 * specfun_log1p : Compute log(1+x) accurately for small values of x.
 *  Discrete Maths
   * specfun_combine : Returns the all the combinations of the given vectors.
   * specfun_combinerepeat : Returns repeated combinations with replacement.
   * specfun_factorial : The factorial function
   * specfun_factoriallog : The log-factorial function
   * specfun_ismember : Array elements that are members of set.
   * specfun_nchoosek : Returns the binomial number (n,k).
   * specfun_pascal : Returns the Pascal matrix.
   * specfun_subset : Generate all combinations of k values from x 
                      without replacement.

CHANGES 0.5.1 => 0.6
--------------------
* builder.sce can now build for both Scilab 5 and Scilab 6
* Dependency on helptbx removed: helptbx_helpupdate() is useful
  only for maintainers (to maintain help pages), never for users.
* readme.txt updated: specfun no longer depends on the assert and
  helptbx modules.
* specfun_subset()
  -- extended to int64 & uint64
  -- fixed against "operation +-[]" errors
* help pages:
  -- specfun code keywords were not highlighted
  -- misc. improvements (indentation, etc)
* (specfun.start now checks that dependences are loaded.)

Comment from Samuel Gougeon -- August 19, 2018, 08:58:54 PM    
From 2018-07-14 to 2018-08-19, an error in specfun.start for Scilab 6.0 prevented loading 
the module correctly.
This is now fixed in the current _60-2-bin.zip binary.
All the modules depending on specfun directly or indirectly might have been hindered:
distfun  floatingpoint  makematrix  number  Ortpol  scidoe  stixbox
Sorry for this inconvenience.
