Complementary error function.
Based on the public domain NETLIB (Fortran) code by W. J. Cody Applied Mathematics Division Argonne National Laboratory Argonne, IL 60439
From the original documentation: The main computation evaluates near-minimax approximations from "Rational Chebyshev approximations for the error function" by W. J. Cody, Math. Comp., 1969, PP. 631-638. This transportable program uses rational functions that theoretically approximate erf(x) and erfc(x) to at least 18 significant decimal digits. The accuracy achieved depends on the arithmetic system, the compiler, the intrinsic functions, and proper selection of the machine-dependent constants.
