On an element-wise basis, computes the complementary error function of the input.
| Usage | Returns | Array.erfc() | Array |
| Argument | Type | Details | this: input | Array | The input array. |
Examples
Code Editor (JavaScript)
print(ee.Array([-6]).erfc()); // [2]
print(ee.Array([0]).erfc()); // [1]
print(ee.Array([28]).erfc()); // [0]
var start = -3;
var end = 3;
var points = ee.Array(ee.List.sequence(start, end, null, 50));
var values = points.erfc();
// Plot erfc() defined above.
var chart = ui.Chart.array.values(values, 0, points)
.setOptions({
viewWindow: {min: start, max: end},
hAxis: {
title: 'x',
viewWindowMode: 'maximized',
ticks: [
{v: start},

[null,null,["Last updated 2023-10-06 UTC."],[],["The `erfc()` method computes the complementary error function for each element in an input array. It's applied using `Array.erfc()` and returns a new array. Input values of -6, 0, and 28 yield results of 2, 1, and 0 respectively. The examples demonstrate creating a sequence of values, applying `erfc()`, and then plotting the resulting function graphically in both JavaScript and Python.\n"]]
