{{Short description|Solution of a confluent hypergeometric equation}}
In [[mathematics]], a '''confluent [[hypergeometric function]]''' is a solution of a '''confluent hypergeometric equation''', which is a degenerate form of a [[hypergeometric differential equation]] where two of the three [[regular singular point|regular singularities]] merge into an [[irregular singularity]]. The term ''[[Confluence|confluent]]'' refers to the merging of singular points of families of differential equations; ''confluere'' is Latin for "to flow together". There are several common standard forms of confluent hypergeometric functions:
