Abstract

On p. 263, in formula 6.6.6 the coefficient of Ix(a, b) should read a + b -ax, in place of a + b -ab.Corresponding to this correction, on p. 944 the right side of formula 26.5.12 should read --l--{blz(a, b + 1) + a(l -x)Ix(a + 1, b -1)}.a(\ -x) + b On p. 541, in formula 14.5.12 the coefficient of t?" 16/3 should read .0008453619 999, instead of .0002534684 115, as first noted by Isacson [1].
