math: speed up Gamma(+Inf)
Add special case for Gamma(+∞) which speeds it up: benchmark old ns/op new ns/op delta BenchmarkGamma-4 14.5 7.44 -48.69% The documentation for math.Gamma already specifies it as a special case: Gamma(+Inf) = +Inf The original C code that has been used as the reference implementation (as mentioned in the comments in gamma.go) also treats Gamma(+∞) as a special case: if( x == INFINITY ) return(x); Change-Id: Idac36e19192b440475aec0796faa2d2c7f8abe0b Reviewed-on: https://go-review.googlesource.com/31370Reviewed-by: Robert Griesemer <gri@golang.org>
