Examples of sectorial and strip asymptotics

Terms related to asymptotic behavior of functions of a complex variable caused confusions.

On the other hand, the calculus of the asymptotic behavior is important tool for implementation of special functions.

In particular, the asymptotic expansions are used for evaluation of functions defined in book "Superfunctions".

The description of asymptotic analysius at Wikipedia seem to be not sufficient.
