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.
