Gamma function

Summary

The gamma function extends the factorial to real arguments. For s>0s > 0 it is an improper integral, and it satisfies Γ(n+1)=n!\Gamma(n + 1) = n! for natural numbers nn. The node gamma function gives the precise definition.

What this node needs for W2
  • edge instance_of in: at least two examples (0 of 2)
  • edge not_instance_of in: at least one non-example (0 of 1)
  • edge specializes both: the more general notions and the special cases (0 of 1)

The writing levels say how complete the text of a node is. They do not measure its truth.
