Complex Li(x) Logarithmic Integral


For Li(x) with x.i == 0, use the real Li(x.r) function.

See: Real Li(x) Logarithmic Integral

In this case Li(x) approximates the prime counting function Pi(x). See Ri(x) Riemann Prime Counting Function for a better approximation of Pi(x).

For complex x, Li(x) is computed using the Exponential Integral

Li(x) = Ei(Ln(x)).

And: Wolfram Function Evaluation -- LogIntegral
