Method Detail

value

public static double value(double a,
                           double x)

Computes the regularized gamma function \( P(a, x) \).

Parameters:

a - Argument.

x - Argument.

Returns:

\( P(a, x) \).

value

public static double value(double a,
                           double x,
                           double epsilon,
                           int maxIterations)

Computes the regularized gamma function \( P(a, x) \). The implementation of this method is based on:

• Regularized Gamma Function, equation (1)
• Incomplete Gamma Function, equation (4).
• Confluent Hypergeometric Function of the First Kind, equation (1).

Parameters:

a - Argument.

x - Argument.

epsilon - Tolerance in continued fraction evaluation.

maxIterations - Maximum number of iterations in continued fraction evaluation.

Returns:

\( P(a, x) \).
