195 * @f]
196 * is the spherical harmonic function and @f$ P_l^m(x) @f$ is the
197 * associated Legendre function.
198 *
199 * This function differs from the associated Legendre function by
200 * argument (@f$x = \cos(\theta)@f$) and by a normalization factor
201 * but this factor is rather large for large @f$ l @f$ and @f$ m @f$
202 * and so this function is stable for larger differences of @f$ l @f$
203 * and @f$ m @f$.
204 * @note Unlike the case for __assoc_legendre_p the Condon-Shortley
205 * phase factor @f$ (-1)^m @f$ is present here.

212 * Legendre function.
