# Special functions (`scipy.special`)

Almost all of the functions below accept NumPy arrays as input arguments as well as single numbers. This means they follow broadcasting and automatic array-looping rules. Technically, they are NumPy universal functions. Functions which do not accept NumPy arrays are marked by a warning in the section description.

`errstate`(**kwargs) | Context manager for special-function error handling.
