func Lentz ¶

func Lentz(z *decimal.Big, g Generator) *decimal.Big

Lentz sets z to the result of the continued fraction provided by the Generator and returns z.

The continued fraction should be represented as such:

                     a1
f(x) = b0 + --------------------
                       a2
            b1 + ---------------
                          a3
                 b2 + ----------
                            a4
                      b3 + -----
                             ...

Or, equivalently:

             a1   a2   a3
f(x) = b0 + ---- ---- ----
             b1 + b2 + b3 + ···

If terms need to be subtracted, the a_N terms should be negative. To compute a continued fraction without b_0, divide the result by a_1.

If the first call to the Generator's Next method returns false, the result of Lentz is undefined.

Note: the accuracy of the result may be affected by the precision of intermediate results. If larger precision is desired, it may be necessary for the Generator to implement the Lentzer interface and set a higher precision for f, Δ, C, and D.
