Challenge: Special Functions in Engineering
When working on engineering problems, you often encounter mathematical functions that are difficult or impossible to compute exactly using elementary operations. SciPy's scipy.special submodule provides access to a wide range of special functions that are widely used in engineering, physics, and probability theory. One such function is the gamma function, which generalizes the factorial function to non-integer values and appears frequently in probability distributions and statistical calculations.
Swipe to start coding
Use scipy.special to compute the value of the gamma function for a given input.
The gamma function extends the factorial operation to real and complex numbers, except for non-positive integers. In probability theory, it is used to define the gamma distribution and appears in the computation of various probabilities and expectations.
Your function should take a single numerical input and return the value of the gamma function for that input.
