The gamma is defined for all real numbers excluding zero and negative integers. It is also defined for all 
complex numbers where either the real or imaginary part of the complex number is not an integer.
Gamma of a symbolic expression returns unevaluated.

List Calculations
This section explains how to input list data, and how to perform basic list calculations.
Inputting List Data in the Work Area
 0214 
  To input the list {1, 2, 3} and assign it to LIST variable “lista” in the Main application work area
LIST Variable Element Operations
You can recall the value of any element of a LIST variable. You can also assign a value to any element in a list.
 0215 
  To recall the second element of the “lista” list variable of example 
 0214 
 0216 
  To assign 5 to the second element of “lista”
Using a List in a Calculation
You can perform arithmetic operations between two lists, between a list and a numeric value, or between a list 
and an expression, equation, or inequality.
Important!
• When you perform an arithmetic operation between two lists, both of the lists need to have the same number 
of cells. An error will occur if they do not.
• An error will also occur whenever an operation between any two cells of the two lists results in an error.
 0217 
  Perform the operation list3 × {6, 0, 4} when list3 contains {41, 65, 22}
Using a List to Assign Different Values to Multiple Variables
