Subject: Ratio of gammas
In-Reply-To: <da79af330803281009m5b623df6jf6d4edfa500d72b1@mail.gmail.com>
hello,
gamma(a) works fine for a<173, but gamma(173) returns
[1] Inf
Warning message:
value out of range in 'gammafn'
What I really need is the ratio
gamma(nu/2) / gamma((nu+1)/2)
is anyone aware of a way to re-express this in a form that pushes the
threshold past which a warning message is generated?
thanks!
