We just need to be super clear on what index the observations are on. Do we choose rows or do we allow either rows or columns? If we allow both...

I believe I can wrap the qf from boost. They say that the method is faster than using the `inv_inc_beta` implementation above. You can see the comment in boost at...

With the introduction of hypergeometric pFq I believe we can use that to calculate the derivative of the modified bessel function of the second kind when $\nu \notin \mathbb{Z}$. From...

Yes, I'd like those 3 cases for addition and subtraction. For example, I had some code like below ```stan int length_x; array[length_x] int x = linspaced_int_array(length_x, L, U); int k;...

I realize there's no efficiency gain. As a user, I just expected the vectorized indexing to work with addition/subtraction and array integers.

Do you want to expose the `grad_2F1` and `grad_3F2` functions as well as `hyper_2F1` and `hyper_3F2`?

@rok-cesnovar can we close this?

Would the row/col-wise framework work for this? https://github.com/stan-dev/design-docs/pull/35#issuecomment-821812405

I'm doing a bunch of stuff with trig functions and I'm finding this issue. It's problematic as the 0s don't propagate through all the calculations leaving that small remainder.

The precision parameterization should have derivatives as well. A few ad hoc tests of mine show that the cholesky version is faster than precision, do others see the same?
