Sets poly to the Gegenbauer (ultraspherical) polynomial Cn(α)(x)=(2α)nn! 2F1(−n,2α+n;α+12;1−x2)C^{(\alpha)}_n(x) = \frac{(2\alpha)_n}{n!}\,{}_2F_1\left(-n,2\alpha+n; \alpha+\frac12;\frac{1-x}{2}\right), for integer n≥0n\ge0 and rational α>0\alpha>0. The coefficients are calculated using a hypergeometric recurrence.
