Dear R users, I have to calculate gamma functions for negative numbers beyond -171.4. e.x. gamma(-500.4) I got following:
> gamma(-170.4) [1] -5.824625e-308 > gamma(-171.4) [1] 0 Warning message: underflow occurred in 'gammafn' I have tried to use a recursion getting values a little futher -180. How could I solve this problem? Thank you beforehand. Chuse. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
