Hi all, I encountered a strange behavior when using the cyl_bessel_i from boost: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_39_0/libs/math/doc/sf_and_dist/html/math_toolkit/special/bessel/mbessel.html
When running within valgrind, the following code boost::math::cyl_bessel_i( 2, 0.82995 ) returns a NaN instead of something close to 0.0912 as correctly returned outside of valgrind. Could this be a valgrind issue, or would you rather have me report this to the boost mailing list? Below is a simple (but requiring boost) unit test for this issue and some infomation about my setup. Thank you for your help. Best regards, Tom Vercauteren /////// Unit test /////// #include <boost/math/special_functions/bessel.hpp> int main() { // boost::math::cyl_bessel_i( 2, 0.82995 ) should be close to 0.0912 assert( isnan( boost::math::cyl_bessel_i( 2, 0.82995 ) ) == 0 ); } ///// End unit test //// //// Commands I tried //// > g++-4.1 -O0 -Wall -Wconversion -I /usr/local/boost_1_39_0/include/boost-1_39/ > boost_cyl_bessel_i_valgrind_bug_test.cpp -o > boost_cyl_bessel_i_valgrind_bug_test > ./boost_cyl_bessel_i_valgrind_bug_test pass > valgrind ./boost_cyl_bessel_i_valgrind_bug_test fail > g++-4.1 -O2 -Wall -Wconversion -I /usr/local/boost_1_39_0/include/boost-1_39/ > boost_cyl_bessel_i_valgrind_bug_test.cpp -o > boost_cyl_bessel_i_valgrind_bug_test > ./boost_cyl_bessel_i_valgrind_bug_test pass > valgrind ./boost_cyl_bessel_i_valgrind_bug_test fail > g++-4.3 -O0 -Wall -Wconversion -I /usr/local/boost_1_39_0/include/boost-1_39/ > boost_cyl_bessel_i_valgrind_bug_test.cpp -o > boost_cyl_bessel_i_valgrind_bug_test > ./boost_cyl_bessel_i_valgrind_bug_test pass > valgrind ./boost_cyl_bessel_i_valgrind_bug_test fail > g++-4.3 -O2 -Wall -Wconversion -I /usr/local/boost_1_39_0/include/boost-1_39/ > boost_cyl_bessel_i_valgrind_bug_test.cpp -o > boost_cyl_bessel_i_valgrind_bug_test > ./boost_cyl_bessel_i_valgrind_bug_test pass > valgrind ./boost_cyl_bessel_i_valgrind_bug_test fail //// End commands I tried //// /// Version information /// > uname -a Linux oahu 2.6.28-15-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jul 29 08:54:56 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux > g++-4.1 --version g++-4.1 (GCC) 4.1.3 20080623 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.2-24ubuntu1) Copyright (C) 2006 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
