acb_hypgeom_2f1_choose

Synopsis#include <flint/acb_hypgeom.h>
int acb_hypgeom_2f1_choose(const acb_t z)source

Chooses the method for computing {}_2F_1 from the location of z: returns 0 for direct summation, 1 to 5 for the transformation with that index in acb_hypgeom_2f1_transform, or 6 for the corner case.

Direct summation is chosen if |z| \le 1/4, the Pfaff transformation if |z/(z-1)| \le 1/4, the smaller of the two if either is at most 3/4, and otherwise the transformation that minimizes the modulus of the new argument, if that modulus is at most 3/4; the remaining region, around \exp(\pm\pi i/3), is the corner case.
