matlab igamma,Incomplete gamma function

Compute Incomplete Gamma Function for Numeric and Symbolic Arguments

Depending on its arguments, igamma returns

floating-point or exact symbolic results.

Compute the incomplete gamma function for these numbers. Because these numbers are

not symbolic objects, you get floating-point results.

A = [igamma(0, 1), igamma(3, sqrt(2)), igamma(pi, exp(1)), igamma(3, Inf)]

A =

0.2194 1.6601 1.1979 0

Compute the incomplete gamma function for the numbers converted to symbolic

objects:

symA = [igamma(sym(0), 1), igamma(3, sqrt(sym(2))),...

igamma(sym(pi), exp(sym(1))), igamma(3, sym(Inf))]

symA =

[ -ei(-1), exp(-2^(1/2))*(2*2^(1/2) + 4), igamma(pi, exp(1)), 0]

Use vpa to approximate symbolic results with floating-point

numbers:

vpa(symA)

ans =

[ 0.21938393439552027367716377546012,...

1.6601049038903044104826564373576,...

1.1979302081330828196865548471769,...
