If I calculate:
MathieuC[MathieuCharacteristicA[0,0],0,0]
I obtain a result of 1 but if I use instead:
MathieuC[MathieuCharacteristicA[0,0.000001],0.000001,0]
I obtain 0.707106.
The correct value is Sqrt[1/2] so it looks as if the normalisation is
wrong for q = 0. Is this a known issue or am I doing something wrong?
