(And assign it to me, if you like.) my initial motivation is to make these functions accessible, with just a few lines of additionnal code. that's so simple with a linux box! but now that a feature request is open - thanks Terry! - it's interesting to have more accurate functions available. so far, the most accurate code i found for the gamma function is from the cephes library, used by the scipy package. is there some other place to check? do you know some nice code to see? any link? thanks, nirinA -- _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
