v?TGamma

Computes the gamma function of vector elements.

Syntax

FORTRAN:

call vstgamma( n, a, y )

call vmstgamma( n, a, y, mode )

call vdtgamma( n, a, y )

call vmdtgamma( n, a, y, mode )

C:

vsTGamma( n, a, y );

vmsTGamma( n, a, y, mode );

vdTGamma( n, a, y );

vmdTGamma( n, a, y, mode );

Description

The v?TGamma function computes the gamma function for elements of the input vector a and writes them to the output vector y. Precision overflow thresholds for the v?TGamma function are beyond the scope of this document. If the result does not meet the target precision, the function raises the OVERFLOW exception and sets the VML Error Status to VML_STATUS_OVERFLOW.
