-
- I'm trying to compile Octave (a Matlab clone) and it uses the function
- lgamma. 386BSD comes with a man page for it and it is also mentioned in
- <math.h>. In the man page is is described to return ln|gamma(x)| and
- the external integer signgam returns the sign of gamma(x).
-
- In the mathlib-2.1-386bsd package there is a function lgamma, but it
- does not set the external variable signgam, and therefore doesn't
- work with (unmodified) Octave.
