list I'd better search for "Fortran" through *all* of WRE to make sure
it's not there somewhere ..."

Interesting. It looks like the way to make use of this is to combine the information in
section 6.7.1 ("Distribution functions", including pgamma ...) with section 6.6
"Calling C from Fortran and vice versa" ?

Thanks to Ben and John. Perhaps the program should call pgamma in R
and pass the number to Fortran. Calling some Fortran subroutines
older than R can trigger concerns when submitting the package to the
CRAN.

As others have said, built-in function pgamma is a (normalized)
version of the incomplete gamma function! John

External Email: Use caution with links and attachments.
Sorry for not making myself clear: The Fortran subroutine in an R
package needs to call incomplete gamma function.

Is there a reason not to use pgamma(), possibly adjusted by a
(de-)normalizing constant? (See detailed notes in ?pgamma)

Hello,
In an R function within a package, I would like to call a Fortran
subroutine to compute lower gamma function. Any advice will be
appreciated.
Thanks!
