This example demonstrates how values of the gamma function are obtained. The gamma function is a generalization of the factorial function to real and complex numbers. Using the commands in the construction summary, we can see how to plot the gamma function and calculate its area using GeoGebra. Suitable for high school calculus courses.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Integral(f, 0, 50) → Area_1
