<h3 class="section">2.1 An Example Program</h3>

<p>The following short program demonstrates the use of the library by
computing the value of the Bessel function J_0(x) for x=5,

<pre class="example"><pre class="verbatim">     #include &lt;stdio.h>
     #include &lt;gsl/gsl_sf_bessel.h>
     
     int
     main (void)
     {
       double x = 5.0;
       double y = gsl_sf_bessel_J0 (x);
       printf ("J0(%g) = %.18e\n", x, y);
       return 0;
     }
</pre></pre>
   <p class="noindent">The output is shown below, and should be correct to double-precision
accuracy,

<pre class="example"><pre class="verbatim">     J0(5) = -1.775967713143382920e-01
</pre></pre>
   <p class="noindent">The steps needed to compile this program are described in the following
sections.
