public static double AiryAi(
	double x
)

Public Shared Function AiryAi ( _
	x As Double _
) As Double

public:
static double AiryAi(
	double x
)

The value Ai(x).

Remarks

The Airy functions appear in quantum mechanics in the semiclassical WKB solution to the wave functions in a potential.

For negative arguments, Ai(x) is oscilatory. For positive arguments, it decreases exponentially with increasing x.
