NAME
gamma - logarithm of the gamma function
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h> double gamma (double x); float gammaf (float x); long double gammal (long double x);
DESCRIPTION
The gamma() functions exist for compatibility reasons. They are equivalent to lgamma() etc. Use these. Use of the name gamma() is confus- ing, since these functions do not compute the Gamma function, but the natural logarithm of the Gamma function.
CONFORMING TO
Nonstandard. Compatible with previous mistakes.
