# gammainc > [Incomplete gamma function][incomplete-gamma-function].
Evaluates the regularized lower [incomplete gamma function][incomplete-gamma-function]:
Regularized lower incomplete gamma function.
The function can also be used to evaluate the regularized upper incomplete gamma function, which is defined as follows:
Regularized upper incomplete gamma function.
The two functions have the relationship `Q(x,a) = 1 - P(x,a)`. In addition, this routine can be used to evaluate the _unregularized_ gamma functions. The range of above functions is `[0,1]`, which is not the case for the _unregularized_ versions. The unregularized lower incomplete gamma function is defined as
Unregularized lower incomplete gamma function.
and the upper unregularized incomplete gamma function is
Unregularized upper incomplete gamma function.
The relationship between the two functions is `Γ(a,x) = γ(a,x) + Γ(a)`.
## Usage ```javascript var gammainc = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/gammainc' ); ``` #### gammainc( x, s\[, regularized\[, upper ]] ) By default, evaluates the regularized lower [incomplete gamma function][incomplete-gamma-function] for inputs `x` and `s`. The third and fourth parameters of the function can be used to specify whether instead to evaluate the non-regularized and/or upper incomplete gamma functions, respectively. ```javascript var y = gammainc( 6.0, 2.0 ); // returns ~0.9826 y = gammainc( 1.0, 2.0, true, true ); // returns ~0.7358 y = gammainc( 7.0, 5.0 ); // returns ~0.8270 y = gammainc( 7.0, 5.0, false ); // returns ~19.8482 ``` If provided `NaN` as any argument, the function returns `NaN`. ```javascript var y = gammainc( NaN, 1.0 ); // returns NaN y = gammainc( 1.0, NaN ); // returns NaN ``` If provided a negative `x`, the function returns `NaN`. ```javascript var y = gammainc( -2.0, 2.0 ); // returns NaN ``` If provided a nonpositive `s`, the function returns `NaN`. ```javascript var y = gammainc( 2.0, -1.0 ); // returns NaN y = gammainc( 2.0, 0.0 ); // returns NaN ```
## Examples ```javascript var randu = require( '@stdlib/random/base/randu' ); var gammainc = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/gammainc' ); var i; var x; var s; for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) { x = randu() * 10.0; s = randu() * 10.0; console.log( 'x: %d, \t s: %d, \t f(x,s): %d', x.toFixed( 4 ), s.toFixed( 4 ), gammainc( x, s ).toFixed( 4 ) ); } ```
