PolyGamma

PolyGamma[z] gives the digamma function .

PolyGamma[n, z] gives the derivative of the digamma function .

PolyGamma[z] is the logarithmic derivative of the gamma function, given by .

PolyGamma[n, z] is given by .

The digamma function is ; is the logarithmic derivative of the gamma function.

PolyGamma[z] and PolyGamma[n, z] are meromorphic functions of z with no branch cut discontinuities.
