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 FunctionsFUNCTIONS
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())

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} ]
