A bug free testsuite is a very important item to advertise scipy in a industrial context. Could someone help me to kill this old bug? (ubuntu 64bits).
If you want to help, the first step in fixing special.pbdv would be to write improved tests for it; just edit test_basic.py to add relevant tests, and do
svn diff test_basic.py > test-special-pbdv.patch
and attach the patch to the corresponding Trac ticket:
http://projects.scipy.org/scipy/ticket/803
Tests for checking the function values at a couple of special points and around "difficult points" (singularities, zeros) would be useful for us.
Well it could be no problem but first I would like to get some feedback on my comments on http://projects.scipy.org/scipy/ticket/803 Special functions are tricky things...many slightly different ways to define them... Xavier
