GAMMA(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation GAMMA(3)
NAME
PDL::GSLSF::GAMMA - PDL interface to GSL Special Functions
DESCRIPTION
This is an interface to the Special Function package present in the GNU Scientific Library.
SYNOPSIS
Functions
FUNCTIONS
gsl_sf_lngamma
Signature: (double x(); double [o]y(); double [o]s(); double [o]e())
Log[Gamma(x)], x not a negative integer Uses real Lanczos method. Determines the sign of Gamma[x] as well as Log[|Gamma[x]|] for x < 0. So
Gamma[x] = sgn * Exp[result_lg].
gsl_sf_gamma
Signature: (double x(); double [o]y(); double [o]e())
Gamma(x), x not a negative integer
gsl_sf_gammastar
Signature: (double x(); double [o]y(); double [o]e())
Regulated Gamma Function, x > 0 Gamma^*(x) = Gamma(x)/(Sqrt[2Pi] x^(x-1/2) exp(-x)) = (1 + 1/(12x) + ...), x->Inf
gsl_sf_gammainv
Signature: (double x(); double [o]y(); double [o]e())
1/Gamma(x)
gsl_sf_lngamma_complex
Signature: (double zr(); double zi(); double [o]x(); double [o]y(); double [o]xe(); double [o]ye())
Log[Gamma(z)] for z complex, z not a negative integer. Calculates: lnr = log|Gamma(z)|, arg = arg(Gamma(z)) in (-Pi, Pi]
gsl_sf_taylorcoeff
Signature: (double x(); double [o]y(); double [o]e(); int n)
x^n / n!
gsl_sf_fact
Signature: (x(); double [o]y(); double [o]e())
n!
gsl_sf_doublefact
Signature: (x(); double [o]y(); double [o]e())
n!! = n(n-2)(n-4)
gsl_sf_lnfact
Signature: (x(); double [o]y(); double [o]e())
ln n!
gsl_sf_lndoublefact
Signature: (x(); double [o]y(); double [o]e())
ln n!!
gsl_sf_lnchoose
Signature: (n(); m(); double [o]y(); double [o]e())
log(n choose m)
gsl_sf_choose
Signature: (n(); m(); double [o]y(); double [o]e())
n choose m
gsl_sf_lnpoch
Signature: (double x(); double [o]y(); double [o]s(); double [o]e(); double a)
Logarithm of Pochammer (Apell) symbol, with sign information. result = log( |(a)_x| ), sgn = sgn( (a)_x ) where (a)_x := Gamma[a +
x]/Gamma[a]
gsl_sf_poch
Signature: (double x(); double [o]y(); double [o]e(); double a)
Pochammer (Apell) symbol (a)_x := Gamma[a + x]/Gamma[x]
gsl_sf_pochrel
Signature: (double x(); double [o]y(); double [o]e(); double a)
Relative Pochammer (Apell) symbol ((a,x) - 1)/x where (a,x) = (a)_x := Gamma[a + x]/Gamma[a]
gsl_sf_gamma_inc_Q
Signature: (double x(); double [o]y(); double [o]e(); double a)
Normalized Incomplete Gamma Function Q(a,x) = 1/Gamma(a) Integral[ t^(a-1) e^(-t), {t,x,Infinity} ]
gsl_sf_gamma_inc_P
Signature: (double x(); double [o]y(); double [o]e(); double a)
Complementary Normalized Incomplete Gamma Function P(a,x) = 1/Gamma(a) Integral[ t^(a-1) e^(-t), {t,0,x} ]
gsl_sf_lnbeta
Signature: (double a(); double b(); double [o]y(); double [o]e())
Logarithm of Beta Function Log[B(a,b)]
gsl_sf_beta
Signature: (double a(); double b();double [o]y(); double [o]e())
Beta Function B(a,b)
