+float erff(float \fIx\fP);

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the
+ISO\ C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described here and the
+ISO\ C standard is unintentional. This volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017 defers to the ISO\ C standard.
+.P
+These functions shall compute the error function of their argument
+.IR x ,
+defined as:
+.sp
+.RS
+${2 over sqrt pi} int from 0 to x e"^" " "{- t"^" 2" "} dt$
+.RE
+.P
+An application wishing to check for error situations should set
+.IR errno
+to zero and call
+.IR feclearexcept (FE_ALL_EXCEPT)
+before calling these functions. On return, if
+.IR errno
+is non-zero or \fIfetestexcept\fR(FE_INVALID | FE_DIVBYZERO |
+FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an error has occurred.
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+Upon successful completion, these functions shall return the value of
+the error function.
+.P
+If
+.IR x
+is NaN, a NaN shall be returned.
+.P
+If
+.IR x
+is \(+-0, \(+-0 shall be returned.
+.P
+If
+.IR x
+is \(+-Inf, \(+-1 shall be returned.
+.P
+If the correct value would cause underflow, a range error may occur, and
+\fIerf\fR(),
+\fIerff\fR(),
+and
+\fIerfl\fR()
+shall return an implementation-defined value no greater in magnitude
+than DBL_MIN, FLT_MIN, and LDBL_MIN, respectively.
+.P
+If the IEC 60559 Floating-Point option is supported, 2 *
+.IR x /\c
+.IR sqrt (\(*p)
+should be returned.
+.SH ERRORS
+These functions may fail if:
+.IP "Range\ Error" 12
+The result underflows.
+.RS 12 
+.P
+If the integer expression (\fImath_errhandling\fR & MATH_ERRNO) is
+non-zero, then
+.IR errno
+shall be set to
+.BR [ERANGE] .
+If the integer expression (\fImath_errhandling\fR & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is
+non-zero, then the underflow floating-point exception shall be raised.

+.SH EXAMPLES
+.SS "Computing the Probability for a Normal Variate"
+.P
+This example shows how to use
+\fIerf\fR()
+to compute the probability that a normal variate assumes a value in the
+range [\fIx\fR1,\fIx\fR2] with \fIx\fR1\(<=\fIx\fR2.
+.P
+This example uses the constant M_SQRT1_2 which is part of the XSI option.

+double
+Phi(const double x1, const double x2)

+    return ( erf(x2*M_SQRT1_2) - erf(x1*M_SQRT1_2) ) / 2;
+}
+.fi
+.P
+.RE
+.SH "APPLICATION USAGE"
+Underflow occurs when |\fIx\fP| < DBL_MIN * (\c
+.IR sqrt (\(*p)/2).
+.P
+On error, the expressions (\fImath_errhandling\fR & MATH_ERRNO) and
+(\fImath_errhandling\fR & MATH_ERREXCEPT) are independent of each
+other, but at least one of them must be non-zero.
+.SH RATIONALE
+None.

+None.
