public static double LogGamma(
	double x
)

Public Shared Function LogGamma ( 
	x As Double
) As Double

public:
static double LogGamma(
	double x
)

static member LogGamma : 
        x : float -> float 

Parameters

x

Type: SystemDouble
The argument, which must be positive.

Return Value

Because Γ(x) grows rapidly for increasing positive x, it is often necessary to work with its logarithm in order to avoid overflow. This function returns accurate values of ln(Γ(x)) even for values of x which would cause Γ(x) to overflow.
