Description

Math Project! :D To use this, just change the sliders and then click green flag or press Space. When it finishes drawing, move your mouse around to trace it. .:: Explanation: This draws the function f(x) = 1/gamma(x) where gamma(x) is the gamma function, a function that is defined by the fact that gamma(x+1) = x*gamma(x), and gamma(1)=1. It is related to the factorial by x! = gamma(x+1). My friend at school gave me this computational formula for finding the value of gamma function, I modified it to give 1/gamma(x). n is a parameter of convergence. greater n means more accurate, but also slower to compute.
