Hi Rene, Digging into my memory I think that I have written such a facility quite some time ago, i.e. in Fortran when I was a student. It also had a facility to provide the zero points of a function. I'll see if I can find the code somewhere and transform it into C++; basically the code for the Prob(), Bessel and Gamma functions came from the same package. I'll let you know when I have something, but can't promise anything :). Cheers, Nick.
