Hello,

Can MathCad calculate and plot a hypergeometrical function

capGAMMA of three variables, say u,v,w ???

Thanks for the help.

Which hypergeometric function did you have in mind? Have you looked at the built-in function fhyper (the Gauss hypergeometric function 2F1(a, b, c, x))?

Hello,

Please see the attached MathCad file. It explains what I need to do.

Please see if you can help.

Thank you so much.

Which Gamma function are you referring to?

How ist that Gamma defined?

Mathcad knows about Euler's Gamma and the incomplete Gamma (with two arguments)

See the definition out of Mathcad's help

Also Wolfram Research does't know about a gamma function with three argument.

BTW, I'm confused about your derivations. You write Gamma(a,x,1) and so you define Gamma being dependent from x, but your derivation behaves as if Gamma is a constant in respect to x???

Apart from Gauss and confluent I'd guess not out of the box.

What hypergeometric function you are interested in?
