Argument Reduction for 0 < x <= 8 * Since gamma(1+s)=s*gamma(s), for x in [0,8], we may * reduce x to a number in [1.5,2.5] by * lgamma(1+s) = log(s) + lgamma(s) * for example, * lgamma(7.3) = log(6.3) + lgamma(6.3) * = log(6.3*5.3) + lgamma(5.3) * = log(6.3*5.3*4.3*3.3*2.3) + lgamma(2.3) * 2. Polynomial approximation of lgamma around its * minimum (ymin=1.461632144968362245) to maintain monotonicity. * On [ymin-0.23, ymin+0.27] (i.e., [1.23164,1.73163]), use * Let z = x-ymin; * lgamma(x) = -1.214862905358496078218 + z**2*poly(z) * poly(z) is a 14 degree polynomial. * 2. Rational approximation in the primary interval [2,3] * We use the following approximation: * s = x-2.0; * lgamma(x) = 0.5*s + s*P(s)/Q(s) * with accuracy * |P/Q - (lgamma(x)-0.5s)| < 2**-61.71 * Our algorithms are based on the following observation * * zeta(2)-1 2 zeta(3)-1 3 * lgamma(2+s) = s*(1-Euler) + --------- * s - --------- * s + ... * 2 3 * * where Euler = 0.5772156649... is the Euler constant, which * is very close to 0.5. * * 3. For x>=8, we have * lgamma(x)~(x-0.5)log(x)-x+0.5*log(2pi)+1/(12x)-1/(360x**3)+.... * (better formula: * lgamma(x)~(x-0.5)*(log(x)-1)-.5*(log(2pi)-1) + ...) * Let z = 1/x, then we approximation * f(z) = lgamma(x) - (x-0.5)(log(x)-1) * by * 3 5 11 * w = w0 + w1*z + w2*z + w3*z + ... + w6*z * where * |w - f(z)| < 2**-58.74 * * 4. For negative x, since (G is gamma function) * -x*G(-x)*G(x) = pi/sin(pi*x), * we have * G(x) = pi/(sin(pi*x)*(-x)*G(-x)) * since G(-x) is positive, sign(G(x)) = sign(sin(pi*x)) for x<0 * Hence, for x<0, signgam = sign(sin(pi*x)) and * lgamma(x) = log(|Gamma(x)|) * = log(pi/(|x*sin(pi*x)|)) - lgamma(-x); * Note: one should avoid computing pi*(-x) directly in the * computation of sin(pi*(-x)). * * 5. Special Cases * lgamma(2+s) ~ s*(1-Euler) for tiny s * lgamma(1)=lgamma(2)=0 * lgamma(x) ~ -log(x) for tiny x * lgamma(0) = lgamma(inf) = inf * lgamma(-integer) = +-inf */ // MODULES // var abs = require( 'math-abs' );
