Ruby - Math.gamma() Method
The Ruby Math.gamma() method returns the gamma function of the argument. The gamma function of x is defined as:
Syntax
Math.gamma(x)
Parameters
x |
Specify the value. |
Return Value
Returns the gamma function of the argument.
Example:
The example below shows the usage of Math.gamma() function.
puts "Math.gamma(-2.5) = #{Math.gamma(-2.5)}"
puts "Math.gamma(-1.5) = #{Math.gamma(-1.5)}"
puts "Math.gamma(-0.5) = #{Math.gamma(-0.5)}"
puts "Math.gamma(0.5) = #{Math.gamma(0.5)}"
puts "Math.gamma(1.5) = #{Math.gamma(1.5)}"
puts "Math.gamma(2.5) = #{Math.gamma(2.5)}"
The output of the above code will be:
Math.gamma(-2.5) = -0.9453087204829418 Math.gamma(-1.5) = 2.363271801207355 Math.gamma(-0.5) = -3.5449077018110318 Math.gamma(0.5) = 1.772453850905516 Math.gamma(1.5) = 0.886226925452758 Math.gamma(2.5) = 1.329340388179137
