gamma
Computes the gamma function.
Nerdamer evaluates supported integer, half-integer, and numeric arguments, using exact symbolic forms where available. Other symbolic arguments remain as gamma(x).
Gamma extends factorial through gamma(n)=(n-1)! for positive integers.
Examples
These examples use Nerdamer Notation.
Use gamma(n)=(n-1)! for a positive integer.
gamma(5) // → 24
Use the exact half-integer value.
gamma(1/2) // → pi^(1/2)
