# scipy.special.hyp0f1

scipy.special.hyp0f1(v, z, out=None) = <ufunc 'hyp0f1'>

  Confluent hypergeometric limit function 0F1.

  Parameters
    v array_like

      Real-valued parameter

    z array_like

      Real- or complex-valued argument

    out ndarray, optional

      Optional output array for the function results

  Returns
    scalar or ndarray

      The confluent hypergeometric limit function

  Notes

  This function is defined as:

  \[_0F_1(v, z) = \sum_{k=0}^{\infty}\frac{z^k}{(v)_k k!}.\]

  It’s also the limit as \(q \to \infty\) of \(_1F_1(q; v; z/q)\), and satisfies the differential equation \(f''(z) + vf'(z) = f(z)\). See [1] for more information.

  Examples

      >>> import scipy.special as sc

  It is one when z is zero.

      >>> sc.hyp0f1(1, 0)
      1.0

  It is the limit of the confluent hypergeometric function as q goes to infinity.

      >>> q = np.array([1, 10, 100, 1000])
      >>> v = 1
      >>> z = 1
      >>> sc.hyp1f1(q, v, z / q)
      array([2.71828183, 2.31481985, 2.28303778, 2.27992985])
      >>> sc.hyp0f1(v, z)
      2.2795853023360673

  It is related to Bessel functions.

      >>> n = 1
      >>> x = np.linspace(0, 1, 5)
      >>> sc.jv(n, x)
      array([0.        , 0.12402598, 0.24226846, 0.3492436 , 0.44005059])
      >>> (0.5 * x)**n / sc.factorial(n) * sc.hyp0f1(n + 1, -0.25 * x**2)
      array([0.        , 0.12402598, 0.24226846, 0.3492436 , 0.44005059])
