Evaluate the gamma function Γ(n), which extends factorials beyond whole numbers.
Last updated: June 2026 | By Patchworkr Team
The gamma function generalizes factorials to a wider domain and is defined everywhere except at non-positive integers.
Inputs must be finite numbers. Non-finite values and poles are rejected explicitly.
Example: Γ(4) = 3! = 6.
Evaluate Γ(4).
1. Use the factorial relation: Γ(4) = 3!.
2. Compute 3! = 3 x 2 x 1.
3. The result is 6.
Final answer: 6
