Everything about Reflection formula
Numerical computation of special functions
In mathematics, a reflection formula or reflection relation for a function f is a relationship between f(a − x) and f(x). It is a special case of a functional equation. It is common in mathematical literature to use the term "functional equation" for what are specifically reflection formulae. Wikipedia →
