/**
* Evaluates the gamma function.
*
* ## Method
*
* 1. Arguments \\(|x| \leq 34\\) are reduced by recurrence and the function approximated by a rational function of degree \\(6/7\\) in the interval \\((2,3)\\).
* 2. Large negative arguments are made positive using a reflection formula.
* 3. Large arguments are handled by Stirling's formula.
*
*
* ## Notes
*
* - Relative error:
*
* | arithmetic | domain | # trials | peak | rms |
* |:----------:|:---------:|:--------:|:-------:|:-------:|
* | DEC | -34,34 | 10000 | 1.3e-16 | 2.5e-17 |
* | IEEE | -170,-33 | 20000 | 2.3e-15 | 3.3e-16 |
* | IEEE | -33, 33 | 20000 | 9.4e-16 | 2.2e-16 |
* | IEEE | 33, 171.6 | 20000 | 2.3e-15 | 3.2e-16 |
*
* - Error for arguments outside the test range will be larger owing to error amplification by the exponential function.
*
*
* @param {number} x - input value
* @returns {number} function value
*
* @example
* var v = gamma( 4.0 );
* // returns 6.0
*
* @example
* var v = gamma( -1.5 );
* // returns ~2.363
*
* @example
* var v = gamma( -0.5 );
* // returns ~-3.545
*
* @example
* var v = gamma( 0.5 );
* // returns ~1.772
*
* @example
* var v = gamma( 0.0 );
* // returns Infinity
*
* @example
* var v = gamma( -0.0 );
* // returns -Infinity
*
* @example
* var v = gamma( NaN );
