Описание (Description)
These functions are deprecated: instead, use either the tgamma(3)
or the lgamma(3) functions, as appropriate.
For the definition of the Gamma function, see tgamma(3).
*BSD version
The libm in 4.4BSD and some versions of FreeBSD had a gamma()
function that computes the Gamma function, as one would expect.
glibc version
Glibc has a gamma() function that is equivalent to lgamma(3) and
computes the natural logarithm of the Gamma function.
Возвращаемое значение (Return value)

Стандарты (Conforming to)
Because of historical variations in behavior across systems, this
function is not specified in any recent standard. It was
documented in SVID 2.
Примечание (Note)
History
4.2BSD had a gamma() that computed ln(|Gamma(|x|)|), leaving the
sign of Gamma(|x|) in the external integer signgam. In 4.3BSD
the name was changed to lgamma(3), and the man page promises
"At some time in the future the name gamma will be
rehabilitated and used for the Gamma function"
This did indeed happen in 4.4BSD, where gamma() computes the
Gamma function (with no effect on signgam). However, this came
too late, and we now have tgamma(3), the "true gamma" function.
