Definition:Gamma Function/Weierstrass Form

Definition
The  form of the Gamma function is:
 * $\displaystyle \frac 1 {\map \Gamma z} = z e^{\gamma z} \prod_{n \mathop = 1}^\infty \paren {\paren {1 + \frac z n} e^{-z / n} }$

where $\gamma$ is the Euler-Mascheroni constant.

The Weierstrass form is valid for all $\C$.
