[GSOC] Generalized Hypergeometric Functions.

Hi all. I just added a quick and naive implementation of Pade approximation for 1f1 and 2f1 hypergeometric functions based on Luke's book. You can find code here: https://github.com/AntonBikineev/math/blob/hypergeometric/ include/boost/math/special_functions/detail/hypergeometric_pfq_pade.hpp I also want to thank Christopher Kormanyos for many advices and help. Best regards, Anton.

Hi Anton, Great work! It looks like you've got excellent programming skills and a clear grasp of the problem domain. As a next step, it might be interesting to investigate some ranges of convergence in your Pade expansions for various types such as float, double, long double, and multiprecision. * What parameter ranges are convergent? * How many terms do we need in the expansions for a given digit range? (Don't be surprised if we need *lots* of terms for multiprecision --- like hundreds of them.) Please be sure to follow Boost's porogress on the application process for GSoC. It's just a little bit too early to apply to GSoC, but if Boost gets accepted for GSoC, I look forward to your application. Get back to me any time either on the list or via private e-mail to discuss further details. Keep up the good work! Sincerely, Chris.
