+//      Gamma function
+//
+// SYNOPSIS:
+//
+// double x, y, tgamma();
+// extern int signgam;
+//
+// y = tgamma( x );
+//
+// DESCRIPTION:
+//
+// Returns gamma function of the argument.  The result is
+// correctly signed, and the sign (+1 or -1) is also
+// returned in a global (extern) variable named signgam.
+// This variable is also filled in by the logarithmic gamma
+// function lgamma().
+//
+// Arguments |x| <= 34 are reduced by recurrence and the function
+// approximated by a rational function of degree 6/7 in the
+// interval (2,3).  Large arguments are handled by Stirling's
+// formula. Large negative arguments are made positive using
+// a reflection formula.
+//
+// ACCURACY:
+//
+//                      Relative error:
+// arithmetic   domain     # trials      peak         rms
+//    DEC      -34, 34      10000       1.3e-16     2.5e-17
+//    IEEE    -170,-33      20000       2.3e-15     3.3e-16
+//    IEEE     -33,  33     20000       9.4e-16     2.2e-16
+//    IEEE      33, 171.6   20000       2.3e-15     3.2e-16
+//
+// Error for arguments outside the test range will be larger
+// owing to error amplification by the exponential function.
