/*							md_yn.c
 *
 *	Bessel function of second kind of integer order
 *
 *
 *
 * SYNOPSIS:
 *
 * double x, y, md_yn();
 * int n;
 *
 * y = md_yn( n, x );
 *
 *
 *
 * DESCRIPTION:
 *
 * Returns Bessel function of order n, where n is a
 * (possibly negative) integer.
 *
 * The function is evaluated by forward recurrence on
 * n, starting with values computed by the routines
 * md_y0() and md_y1().
 *
 * If n = 0 or 1 the routine for md_y0 or md_y1 is called
 * directly.
 *
 *
 *
 * ACCURACY:
 *
 *
 *                      Absolute error, except relative
 *                      when y > 1:
 * arithmetic   domain     # trials      peak         rms
 *    DEC       0, 30        2200       2.9e-16     5.3e-17
 *    IEEE      0, 30       30000       3.4e-15     4.3e-16
 *
 *
 * ERROR MESSAGES:
 *
 *   message         condition      value returned
 * md_yn singularity   x = 0              MAXNUM
 * md_yn overflow                         MAXNUM
 *
 * Spot checked against tables for x, n between 0 and 100.
