evaluates an approximation to the modified Bessel function of the first kind
, where the order =-3, -2, -1, 1, 2 or 3 and x is real and positive. For positive orders it may also be called with x=0, since
when
> 0. For negative orders the formula

is used prior to multiplication by the scale factor
.
For more information please review the s18ecc function in the NAG document.
x>0.0 when nu<0, x???0.0 when nu>0.
