Subject: | [Bug-gsl] domain for gamma functions |
Date: | Sun, 29 Oct 2006 00:08:16 -0500 (CDT) |
Hello GSL maintainers/developers, First: thanks for providing such a useful scientific library!Second: I think I found a minor mistake in the manual, on the page about gamma functions: http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/manual/html_node/Gamma-Functions.html#Gamma-Functions
On this page the valid domain for most of the functions is described with the phrase "subject to x not being a negative integer". However, for x=0 these functions diverge just like for negative integers. I suppose that something like "subject to x-1 not being a negative integer" was intended, or "subject to x not being a negative integer or zero".
Cheers, David
