Dear GSL group,
Thank you very much for your work on GSL. I use it much in Octave.
I think it would be great if you could improve the GSL routines
for computations of exponential integrals so that they can accept
complex arguments too. A good algorithm for this was published in
ACM Transactions on Mathematical Software
Donald E. Amos, Computation of Exponential Integrals of a Complex
Argument, vol.16, no. 2, p.169--177, 1990,
http://doi.acm.org/10.1145/78928.78933
ACM Transactions on Mathematical Software
Donald E. Amos, Algorithm 683: A Portable FORTRAN Subroutine for
Exponential Integrals of a Complex Argument, vol.16, no. 2,
p.178--182, 1990,
http://doi.acm.org/10.1145/78928.78934
The fortran code is available at
