+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The \fBj0()\fP and \fBj1()\fP functions return Bessel functions of \fIx\fP
+of the first kind of orders 0 and 1, respectively. The \fBjn()\fP function
+returns the Bessel function of \fIx\fP of the first kind of order \fIn\fP.
+.PP
+The \fBy0()\fP and \fBy1()\fP functions return Bessel functions of \fIx\fP
+of the second kind of orders 0 and 1, respectively. The \fByn()\fP function
+returns the Bessel function of \fIx\fP of the second kind of order \fIn\fP.
+.PP
+For the functions \fBy0()\fP, \fBy1()\fP and \fByn()\fP, the value of \fIx\fP
+must be positive. For negative values of \fIx\fP, these functions return
+\-HUGE_VAL.
+.PP
+The \fBj0f()\fP etc. and \fBj0l()\fP etc. functions are versions that take
+and return float and long double values, respectively.
+.SH "CONFORMING TO"
+The functions returning double conform to SVID 3, BSD 4.3, XPG4,
+POSIX 1003.1-2001. The other functions are C99 requirements.
+.SH BUGS
+There are errors of up to 2e\-16 in the values returned by \fBj0()\fP,
+\fBj1()\fP and \fBjn()\fP for values of \fIx\fP between \-8 and 8.
