摘要
We use the Tau Method to approximate Buchstab's function which is defined by the differential-delay equation (uw(u))' = w(u-1) for u greater than or equal to 2 and w(u) = 1/u for 1 less than or equal to u less than or equal to 2. This equation has been treated by other authors using different numerical techniques. The errors in the Tau Method case are found to be lower than those obtained using power series expansions.
