The log-Gamma function is an important special function of math- ematics, and its principal branch is required in many applications. We develop here the mathematics required to evaluate the principal branch to arbitrary precision, including a new bound for the error in Stirling's asymptotic series. We conclude with a discussion of the implementation of the principal branch of the log-Gamma function in the Maple symbolic algebra system, starting with version Maple V Release 3. |
