Definición

In mathematics, the error function (also called the Gauss error function), often denoted by erf, is a complex function of a complex variable defined as:
Some authors define without the factor of .
This nonelementary integral is a sigmoid function that occurs often in probability, statistics, and partial differential equations. In many of these applications, the function argument is a real number. If the function argument is real, then the function value is also real.
In statistics, for non-negative values of x, the error function has the following interpretation: for a random variable Y that is normally distributed with mean 0 and standard deviation 1/√2, erf x is the probability that Y falls in the range [−x, x].
Two closely related functions are the complementary error function (erfc) defined as
and the imaginary error function (erfi) defined as
where i is the imaginary unit.
