Cristinel Mortici describes this method in Applied Mathematics Letters. "A substantial improvement of the Stirling formula". This algorithm is said to give about 7 good digits, but becomes more inaccurate close to zero. Therefore, a "shift" is performed to move the value returned into the more accurate domain.

This is a word, based on a formula of Ramanujan's famous "lost notebook", which was rediscovered in 1976. His formula contained a constant, which had a value between 1/100 and 1/30. In 2008, E.A. Karatsuba described the function, which determines the value of this constant. Since it contains the gamma function itself, it can't be used in a word calculating the gamma function, so here it is emulated by two symmetrical sigmoidals.

This code shows the built-in method, which works for any value (positive, negative and complex numbers -- but note that negative integer arguments give infinite results).

<code>&lt;:</code> subtracts one from a number. It's sort of like <code>--lvalue</code> in C, except it always accepts an "rvalue" as an argument (which means it does not modify that argument). And <code>!value</code> finds the factorial of value if value is a positive integer. This illustrates the close relationship between the factorial and gamma functions.

 

The following direct coding of the task comes from the [[J:Essays/Stirling's%20Approximation|Stirling's approximation essay]] on the J wiki:

scorr =: 1 1r12 1r288 _139r51840 _571r2488320&p.@%

Checking against <code>!@<:</code> we can see that this approximation loses accuracy for small arguments

2.71828 1.56746 1.56747

1.5 0.886155 0.886227

(Column 1 is the argument, column 2 is the stirling approximation and column 3 uses the builtin support for gamma.)
