 *  SYNOPSIS
 *
 *    #include <Rmath.h>
 *    double gammafn(double x);
 *
 *  DESCRIPTION
 *
 *    This function computes the value of the gamma function.
 *
 *  NOTES
 *
 *    This function is a translation into C of a Fortran subroutine
 *    by W. Fullerton of Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory.
 *    (e.g. http://www.netlib.org/slatec/fnlib/gamma.f)
 *
 *    The accuracy of this routine compares (very) favourably
 *    with those of the Sun Microsystems portable mathematical
 *    library.
 *
 *    MM specialized the case of  n!  for n < 50 - for even better precision
