arb_hypgeom_gamma_stirling
Synopsis
#include <flint/arb_hypgeom.h>For the reflection formula is applied first. The argument is then shifted by a rising factorial to , where is between 0.17 and 0.24 depending on the precision, and the number of terms is chosen so that the bound for the remainder of the Stirling series is below . The working precision is increased by the number of exponent bits of large and limited by the accuracy of the input. Arguments with more than about exponent bits give an indeterminate result. See The Stirling series.
