77 * @param l The degree of the Legendre polynomial. @f$l >= 0@f$.

194 * @brief Return the spherical associated Legendre function.
196 * The spherical associated Legendre function of @f$ l @f$, @f$ m @f$,
197 * and @f$ \theta @f$ is defined as @f$ Y_l^m(\theta,0) @f$ where
199 * Y_l^m(\theta,\phi) = (-1)^m[\frac{(2l+1)}{4\pi}
200 * \frac{(l-m)!}{(l+m)!}]
201 * P_l^m(\cos\theta) \exp^{im\phi}
203 * is the spherical harmonic function and @f$ P_l^m(x) @f$ is the
204 * associated Legendre function.
206 * This function differs from the associated Legendre function by
207 * argument (@f$x = \cos(\theta)@f$) and by a normalization factor
208 * but this factor is rather large for large @f$ l @f$ and @f$ m @f$
209 * and so this function is stable for larger differences of @f$ l @f$
211 * @note Unlike the case for __assoc_legendre_p the Condon-Shortley
212 * phase factor @f$ (-1)^m @f$ is present here.
214 * @param l The degree of the spherical associated Legendre function.
216 * @param m The order of the spherical associated Legendre function.
218 * @param theta The radian angle argument of the spherical associated
