Lerch Transcendent and Polylogarithm

Description:This program computes the Lerch transcendent Phi(z, s, a). The arguments may be real or complex. The program is a straightforward implementation of the function definition and it converges fairly quickly if |z| is not close to 1. The execution time rises and accuracy decreases as |z| approaches 1, so this is not an efficient algorithm for the Zeta function. The number 9999 for the maximum number of iterations may be lowered to improve speed at the cost of accuracy for values of |z| close to 1.
