|  | # --description--
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | Implement one algorithm (or more) to compute the [Gamma](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma function) ($\\Gamma$) function (in the real field only). | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | The Gamma function can be defined as: | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | <div style='padding-left: 4em;'><big><big>$\Gamma(x) = \displaystyle\int_0^\infty t^{x-1}e^{-t} dt$</big></big></div> | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | # --hints--
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | `gamma` should be a function. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ```js | ||
|  | assert(typeof gamma == 'function'); | ||
|  | ``` | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | `gamma(.1)` should return a number. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ```js | ||
|  | assert(typeof gamma(0.1) == 'number'); | ||
|  | ``` | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | `gamma(.1)` should return `9.513507698668736`. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ```js | ||
|  | assert.equal(round(gamma(0.1)), round(9.513507698668736)); | ||
|  | ``` | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | `gamma(.2)` should return `4.590843711998803`. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ```js | ||
|  | assert.equal(round(gamma(0.2)), round(4.590843711998803)); | ||
|  | ``` | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | `gamma(.3)` should return `2.9915689876875904`. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ```js | ||
|  | assert.equal(round(gamma(0.3)), round(2.9915689876875904)); | ||
|  | ``` | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | `gamma(.4)` should return `2.218159543757687`. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ```js | ||
|  | assert.equal(round(gamma(0.4)), round(2.218159543757687)); | ||
|  | ``` | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | `gamma(.5)` should return `1.7724538509055159`. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ```js | ||
|  | assert.equal(round(gamma(0.5)), round(1.7724538509055159)); | ||
|  | ``` | ||

|  | 
 | ||
|  | ```js | ||
|  | function gamma(x) { | ||
|  |   var p = [0.99999999999980993, 676.5203681218851, -1259.1392167224028, | ||

 | ||
|  |   var g = 7; | ||
|  |   if (x < 0.5) { | ||
|  |     return Math.PI / (Math.sin(Math.PI * x) * gamma(1 - x)); | ||
|  |   } | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  |   x -= 1; | ||
|  |   var a = p[0]; | ||
|  |   var t = x + g + 0.5; | ||
|  |   for (var i = 1; i < p.length; i++) { | ||
|  |   a += p[i] / (x + i); | ||
|  |   } | ||
|  |
